Hong Kong and Shenzhen authorities unveiled plans on Friday to revamp the Huanggang border crossing, with the improved facility set to commence operation on Monday, October 12. A ceremony welcoming the ground-breaking transformation is scheduled for Sunday, October 10.
The newly redesigned Huanggang Port will offer round-the-clock clearance services for passengers and vehicles, eliminating the need for passengers to visit temporary port buildings in Shenzhen and Lok Ma Chau in Hong Kong. Passenger clearance services currently operating at these facilities will be suspended upon the new port's opening.
The completion of acceptance inspections, system tests, trials, and emergency drills by both Hong Kong and Shenzhen authorities have confirmed the new port's readiness for operation. Director of Immigration Benson Kwok inspected the revamped facility on Friday, emphasizing the convenience of the "co-operative inspection and joint clearance" service available to residents through the HK e-Channel mobile app.
