In the past few days, rumors about Hong Kong’s customs clearance in early December have been raging. First, the South China Morning Post broke the news, and then a group of mainland experts visited Hong Kong...
Everyone was excited again and again.
When will the customs be cleared? How to clear customs? Perhaps there will be an official conclusion soon!
It is reported that the second docking meeting for customs clearance between Hong Kong and the Mainland was held today (25th) in Shenzhen, and it is expected that customs clearance matters will be finalized after the meeting.
In addition, recent signs indicate that this customs clearance is very reliable.
Clearance signal 1.
The earliest source of news about customs clearance in early December was the South China Morning Post. Let’s take a look at what the specific news said:
Judging from the news from the South China Morning Post, the first is the time of customs clearance that everyone is most concerned about: starting from the first week of December, Hong Kong will achieve non-isolated customs clearance with the mainland.
This statement is more than half a month ahead of the previous mid-December!
As soon as the news came out, the whole network was boiling, and many netizens started to carve directly in the circle of friends.
The South China Morning Post emphasized that there is still a limit on the number of people in the initial customs clearance, with a limit of a few hundred per day. Only if the initial customs clearance is smooth, will it be further expanded to several thousand people.

On November 20, some netizens discovered that Alibaba's train ticket sales platform "Flying Pig" quietly launched ticket information from Shenzhen North to Hong Kong West Kowloon Station. But from Hong Kong to Shenzhen, there is no ticket information for the time being.
The important thing is that both "South China Morning Post" and "Flying Pig" belong to the Ali line...
Although the page of the "Fliggy" platform can display ticket information, it is temporarily unavailable for booking.
Clearance signal 3.
On the same day, a news article about "A delegation of experts from the Mainland visited Hong Kong to inspect epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic measures" seemed to verify the claim that Hong Kong passed customs in early December!
At present, the expert team has completed a four-day on-site inspection of Hong Kong's epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic measures as planned.
The visit of the expert group to Hong Kong has played a very active and constructive role in promoting the gradual and orderly resumption of customs clearance between the two places, and it is an important step to advance the goal of orderly customs clearance.

On November 23, Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor met with reporters before attending the executive meeting and announced several pieces of news about "customs clearance", which contained a lot of information.
The second matchmaking meeting for customs clearance between Hong Kong and the Mainland was held in Shenzhen on November 25. The Hong Kong side will be led by the Chief Secretary for Administration Li Jiachao, hoping to create favorable conditions for customs clearance.
When the reporter asked about the customs clearance time, the chief executive said that it is unlikely that the two places will achieve "normal customs clearance" before December 19.
So, large-scale "customs clearance" before December 19 is indeed unlikely, but a small number, pilot, (quota system) "customs clearance" is not without hope.

Tan Yaozong, a member of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress of Hong Kong, who was previously rejected by the central government to go to Beijing for a meeting due to the Hong Kong epidemic, had obtained approval from the central government for his December application to go to Beijing.

Previously, for the "tracking function" of the health code, it caused widespread controversy and once slowed the progress of customs clearance.
Now that the Mainland allows Hong Kong not to use the health code with tracking function, it can be said that it has cleared a very big obstacle for customs clearance.
However, in order to make adequate preparations for customs clearance, the Hong Kong government is also increasing its prevention and control efforts.
Starting from December 9th, all restaurants, gyms, theme parks and other places will be forced to use peace of mind to travel.
Clearance signal 7.
From December 3rd to 5th, about 30 Tokyo Olympic national team athletes will visit Hong Kong, including Su Bingtian and Ma Long.
They will also perform public performances in Hong Kong!
It is not difficult to find that the date of the Olympic national team's visit to Hong Kong coincides with the time of customs clearance through the Internet.
The epidemic and the "closing of customs" can not stop the Olympic athletes of the national team from visiting Hong Kong, and this also makes everyone more confident that Hong Kong and the mainland can return to normal "customs clearance" in early December~
Clearance is a top priority, no doubt. Looking forward to the second matchmaking meeting held in Shenzhen today, good news will be delivered and the customs clearance will be settled!
