Nearly three years later, China and Hong Kong resumed customs clearance starting today (January 8). When going north to the mainland and returning to Hong Kong to cross the border, they must hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 48 hours.
"Hong Kong 01" actually tested the nucleic acid testing process in a mainland hospital today. Since Hong Kong people do not have a mainland phone number and certificate, the process is more complicated, and the staff is not familiar with the process, so I can't answer it right away.
In fact, you only need to use WeChat to register your information, manually delete the plus sign "+" when filling in your Hong Kong phone number, and you can successfully register for nucleic acid testing without receiving a verification SMS.
Hong Kong people who are planning to return to Hong Kong have to find four or five hospitals to be successfully tested. They also criticize that there is no need for testing yesterday, and that testing today is going back.

Returning to Hong Kong must hold a negative nucleic acid certificate within 48 hours
According to the current regulations of the Hong Kong government, when Hong Kong people go north to the mainland and return to Hong Kong, they must hold a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 48 hours.
If the return test proves negative and the statute of limitations has not yet expired, there is no need to do another nucleic acid test in the Mainland.
However, Hong Kong residents who plan to stay in the Mainland for many days must prepare a negative test certificate before returning to Hong Kong.
Taking Shenzhen as an example, Hong Kong people can search for nucleic acid testing stations through two methods, namely the website of the Shenzhen Municipal Health Commission (click here), and the WeChat applet to search for "Shenzhen Health Cloud". Hospital information, including address, opening hours, phone number, fees, whether it supports yellow code testing, etc.
Hong Kong people can find nucleic acid testing stations through the WeChat applet
Looking through the WeChat applet, we can find that the sampling points in Shenzhen are located in hospitals, parks or residential areas.
The testing services of some hospitals are charged, but the service targets include people with yellow codes, and the opening hours even last up to 24 hours.
As for the sampling points in the community, although there is no charge, they mainly serve residents, and the opening hours are relatively short, only within a few hours.
On the first day of customs clearance, the Federation of Trade Unions set up an inquiry booth outside Futian Port.
Shao Jianbo, deputy director general of the Mainland Consulting Service Center of the Federation of Trade Unions, said that he has recently received inquiries from many Hong Kong people about traffic problems, and suggested that Hong Kong people can search the government official account of the place where they live in the WeChat mini-program to find nearby nucleic acid testing facilities. Hospital.

The hospital must obtain the QR code of "Guangdong Nucleic Acid" before testing
The reporter chose to take the subway to the Eighth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University for nucleic acid testing.
If departing from Futian Port, first take Line 4 to the Convention and Exhibition Center Station, then transfer to Line 1 to Huaqiang Road, and go straight from Exit C for about 5 minutes.
There is a sign for the nucleic acid testing station outside the hospital. The staff will provide the QR code of the "Guangdong Nucleic Acid" platform. After scanning through WeChat, they can fill in the information, including name, gender, date of birth, phone number, home return certificate number, Residential address, etc., and select "Voluntary inspection (at your own expense)" to obtain the QR code for testing.

Hong Kong mobile phone numbers do not need to enter the plus sign
However, Hong Kong people who do not have a mainland phone number should pay attention. When filling in the Hong Kong phone number, there is no need to enter the plus sign, that is, "+852", otherwise they will not be able to pass. Just enter "852" and a total of 11 digits of the phone number, no need to short message verification.

Payment can be made with AlipayHK or WeChat Pay HK
After the registration is completed, the staff will assist in the registration of the hospital's "registration card number". After obtaining the number, you can use the self-service machine to select "barcode login", enter the number and pay electronically, and then you can test.
The hospital where the reporter works charges 12.5 yuan for the test, which can be paid through AlipayHK or WeChat Pay HK that has been certified or bound to a bank card, but cash is not accepted.

It took half a day for Hong Kong people to finally get a hospital test
Before returning to Hong Kong, it is necessary to have a nucleic acid test certificate within 48 hours. It will be implemented from today. After hearing the news, many Hong Kong people immediately searched for testing centers. At noon, about a few Hong Kong people in the hospital finally accepted the test after many twists and turns.
Among them, Ms. Xu confessed that she felt helpless. She said that she visited four hospitals today, but none of them had nucleic acid testing services. She used the hospital's self-service machine for the first time. In order to complete the phone authentication steps, she could only use her husband's mainland phone card.
She believes that the governments of the two places should publicize the new immigration measures to Hong Kong people, "There is nothing humane, and there should be a buffer period."

Waiting for the test certificate to return to Hong Kong to change the ID card
Ms. Wang, who has lived in Guangzhou for three years, did not know that a nucleic acid certificate was required until she arrived at Futian Port, so she dragged two suitcases to the hospital.
She said frankly that she has made an appointment to exchange for a Hong Kong identity card tomorrow, so she is worried that the hospital will not be able to issue the certificate within today, and now she can only wait helplessly.
"It's so messy, there's no preparation at all."
