Hong Kong axes COVID tests on arrival, most remaining rules

Hong Kong on Wednesday announced it will scrap nearly all remaining coronavirus restrictions, including testing rules for arriving travelers and social distancing restrictions, following mainland China into a full reopening.

Vaccination passes also scrapped but face masks will remain mandatory.

The changes take effect Thursday. The city's government said it would also ax a mandatory vaccine pass required to enter various premises but keep indoor and outdoor mask-wearing rules.
