The Chinese Embassy in the UK will continue to assist returnees in difficult circumstances in the UK

China News Service, April 13 (Xinhua) According to the website of the Chinese Embassy in the UK, according to the deployment of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Chinese Embassy and Consulate in the UK will continue to assist returning students who are in a difficult situation in the UK. The relevant matters are hereby notified as follows:

1. Home protection and reducing mobility are the safest self-protection methods during an epidemic. The cabin space is confined, people are dense, the journey is long, and there is a great risk of cross infection. If there is no special urgent need, it is recommended to avoid rushing back to China.

2. Temporary flight tickets and isolation fees for returning home are at your own expense. Air ticket costs are determined by airlines in accordance with market principles. At present, the direct fares of domestic flights from London to London are in the range of 30,000-40,000 yuan, and in the business class are 50,000-60,000 yuan. The local government's new coronary pneumonia testing, isolation and room and board costs about 10,000 yuan per person.

3. The flight attendant shall bear all possible risks in the process of returning home, and consciously accept the various epidemic prevention arrangements during the flight and after entry. Minors studying abroad need to travel alone, and guardians in the UK cannot accompany the plane. Purchase of tickets shall be deemed as consent.

4. In order to ensure public health and safety, diagnosed, suspected cases, those who have fever and cough symptoms within the past 14 days, and those who are in close contact with new coronary pneumonia, please do not book and take flights. If the body temperature exceeds 37.3 degrees (inclusive) or there are suspected symptoms before boarding, the airline will refuse to board.

5. Persons who intend to take temporary flights to return to the country must go through the WeChat mini program of the international version of the Epidemic Health Code in advance, and fill in personal information, health status, recent travel and other information on a daily basis. For details, see:

https://www.fmprc.gov.cn/ce/ceuk/chn/lsfw/lsxz/t1767813.htm

Insufficient days of continuous reporting or abnormal health status will make it impossible to board the plane, and false reporting shall bear corresponding legal responsibilities.

6. Strict quarantine inspection will be carried out at the port of entry of the flight. Once a passenger who conceals his illness and contact history or discovers that he has taken antipyretics and other inhibitory drugs during quarantine inspection is found, he will be held liable for the crime of endangering public safety.

7. Underage students, public students and visiting scholars accompanied by parents in the UK are not included in the scope of taking temporary flights.

8. The guardians of under-age students studying abroad must be accompanied by the relevant local government for 14 days of centralized isolation medical observation. The relevant guardians are requested to be in place in time.

9. The flying airline will arrange for someone to call for ticket purchase. Please register and the family members to keep the mobile phone unblocked. If multiple calls are not answered or the ticket purchase is not completed within the stipulated time, it will be regarded as abandoning the flight.

10. Passengers are asked to put their luggage on their name tags so that the flight destination government can arrange luggage transportation.

11. Relevant personnel can use Alipay to scan the QR code below to register personal information and upload a passport photo. Minors can be registered by domestic parents or guardians in the UK. Parents of minor students need to download and sign and attach the "Responsibility Commitment" together with their ID cards and personal information pages of minor children's passports. After receiving the relevant materials, the registration background will be regarded as successful registration. The Chinese Embassy in the United Kingdom will consider and assist in returning to the country according to the difficulty of the registrant and the order of registration.
