In order to reduce cross border transmission of COVID-19, starting from 8, Nov., 2020, all Chinese and foreign passengers who are to fly from Sudan to China will be required to take nucleic acid and IgM anti-body tests and then apply for a green health code with the 'HS' mark or a certified health declaration form before boarding the flight. The specific requirements are as follows:

Ⅰ.Test Requirements

Passengers going to China via connecting flights must take nucleic acid and IgM anti-body tests in Sudan within 48 hours before boarding their flight to the transit country and then take both tests again in the transit country within 48 hours (caculated from the date of swab rather than the date of report) before boarding the plane to China. Passengers must apply at the Chinese Embassies/Consulates in BOTH countries for green health codes with the "HS" mark or certified health declaration forms with certificates of negative results of both tests.

Ⅱ. Chinese Passengers Applying for Green Health Code with the 'HS' Mark

Chinese passengers must upload to the WeChat Health Code app photos of their negative nucleic acid and IgM anti-body tests results, which will then be examined and verified by the Chinese Embassy/Consulates. Then they will get the green health code with the 'HS' mark. Passengers must present the green code within its validity period to the airlines flying directly to China before boarding.
