Kota Kinabalu: Mainland Chinese authorities will start issuing tourist and business visas to allow Chinese nationals to enter Hong Kong from January 8, according to a report.

Hong Kong, meanwhile, will have to discuss with mainland authorities how the reopening is to be done, the SCMP reported an insider as saying. Also, sources said the city is set to minimise polymerase chain reaction testing requirements for inbound travellers.

China’s National Immigration Administration on Tuesday said they will also gradually resume land border checkpoints with Hong Kong and Macau, as well as their express immigration channels. The current 3,500-quota system for Hongkongers heading to the mainland would go “offline” on the same day, in what a Hong Kong government source said was preparation for a gradual border reopening.
