Please go to China to do a good job of personal protection and self-closed-loop management after completing the test. In an attitude of being responsible for yourself and others, do not arrange activities such as sightseeing, sightseeing, dining, meeting friends, etc. to minimize the risk of infection on the journey.

Please wait patiently after submitting the application. The embassy and consulate in the United Arab Emirates review the relevant applications on weekdays, weekends and holidays. ( 3) If you do not meet the transit conditions and insist on transiting in the United Arab Emirates, resulting in the losses caused by the inability to go to China, the relevant personnel shall bear the responsibility.
