The rebuilt Huanggang Port adopts the model of "co-operative inspection and one-time clearance". Travellers using automated channels need only queue once and present their document once to complete immigration procedures for both Hong Kong and Shenzhen. Eligible persons can register through the Immigration Department's "Hong Kong e-Channel" app, and those aged 14 or above can also register for "facial-recognition clearance" at the same time. Before use, they must first complete registration for the Mainland's express channels.
Why read this: The article sets out how to register for the co-operative inspection automated channels and who is eligible for facial-recognition clearance, allowing readers to check whether they can complete Hong Kong and Shenzhen immigration with just one queue.
