【I love to ask the eye brother】

Help a friend ask: It seems that it is really too difficult to return to China recently, and the ticket is too expensive. Can I try flying to Hong Kong or Macau and then transiting back to China? My friend is holding a Chinese passport

Enthusiastic netizens in the comment area also gave answers:

The Hong Kong and Macau regions have entry restrictions for mainland residents and are currently prohibited from entering the country. Exemptions can be found in local epidemic prevention policies

Must fly directly, or you have to file and apply for a visa or, if permitted, cannot transfer directly. Staying 14-28 days is ok

Basically, local residents of Hong Kong and Macau can enter the country overseas

A: No. Chinese citizens entering from Singapore are unable to transit into China in Hong Kong or Macau.

On 7 February 2022, the Chinese Embassy in Singapore updated the "Notice on Passengers Travelling to China on Flights to China With Dual Negative Certificates of Nucleic Acid Test for COVID-19 and Serum Antibody Test", which mentioned that in singapore where there are direct flights to China, the Embassy will not issue health codes to persons transiting from Singapore to a third country or region to the Mainland. In simple terms, all passengers flying from Singapore to China can only choose direct flights.
