First, people entering (returning to) Beijing must present a negative nucleic acid test result obtained within 48 hours prior to the entrance and show the green code status on the "Beijing Health Kit". People with a travel or residence history in a county (county-level city, district, banner) where one or more confirmed local cases are found within 14 days, are strictly restricted from entering (returning to) Beijing. Commuters from neighboring areas of Beijing, who enter (return to) Beijing for the first time after the new measure takes effect, are required to present a negative nucleic acid test result obtained within 48 hours prior to the entry, and for each subsequent entry, a negative result of nucleic acid test taken within 14 days is sufficient.
Second, people with a travel or residence history in a county (county-level city, district or banner) where land border crossings are located within 14 days, are prohibited from entering (returning to) Beijing unless absolutely necessary. People in Beijing should refrain from traveling to such counties (county-level cities, districts or banners) unless absolutely necessary.
Third, national conferences, training programs and other activities will be strictly controlled in Beijing. If it is indeed necessary to hold such events, whoever hosts and approves the holding of the event should earnestly fulfill their main responsibility for COVID-19 prevention and control, draw up special plans for COVID-19 response, strictly prevent people posing infection risks from attending the events, and carry out closed-loop management, restricting attendees from going out during the event. Hotels and restaurants accommodating such events must strictly implement measures like Health Kit registration and body temperature checks, and should not receive anyone posing COVID-19 infection risks.
The above measures will take effect at 00:00 November 17th, 2021, and are subject to further adjustments as the epidemic situation evolves, which shall be released in due time.
