Passengers' Beijing Health Kit must indicate "No abnormal conditions." Passengers will also be screened for fever prior to boarding.
Passengers must have completed a nucleic acid test within the past seven days and should be prepared to provide proof of the test upon arrival.

Additionally, airport customer service staff advise passengers to confirm the specific epidemic prevention measures being followed by your destination airport in advance.
The regulations are in line with an earlier announcement by the nation’s train authority stating that travelers must be tested within seven days of train travel.
