The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China has announced that, starting from Wednesday 30 August, there will no longer be a requirement for anyone to take any COVID tests before entering the country.
Previously, foreigners entering China were required to take a test within 48 hours on arrival, with customs officers checking for test results randomly.
In Beijing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said at a regular press conference on Monday that from this week, people coming to China will not be required to undergo either NAT or RAT tests for COVID.
China has been relaxing its anti-pandemic policy since the end of last year and officially reopened its borders the outside world on 8 January this year with the lifting of border control measures.
In Macau, guidelines were updated on 29 April which removed the requirement for people entering Macao to undergo any tests for COVID.
