II. Some countries (Please click HERE, https://hr.cs.mfa.gov.cn/help_two/help-two/gj.html) have implemented the requirements of obtaining COVID-19 negative certificates before boarding the flights to China. Therefore, foreign passengers who are to transit in the above-mentioned countries and then fly directly to China, need to take nucleic acid tests for COVID-19 at institutions or hospitals designated or recognized by Chinese Embassy in Croatia in order to obtain a certified Health Declaration Form from the Chinese Embassy in Croatia. Airlines will check the forms before the passengers board the connecting flights to China. It is important that the passengers ultimately bound for China, who are to transit via the above-mentioned countries, make sure that their Health Declaration Forms are valid and certified before boarding the flights direct to China, otherwise, airlines should not allow them on board.

All passengers who are to transit in the above-mentioned countries and then fly directly to China, need to take nucleic acid tests for COVID-19 within three days before boarding the flights direct to China. Tests must be taken at institutions designated or recognized by Chinese Embassy in Croatia (See Attachment 1)
