Here are some answers to common questions about endorsements.

1 What is an endorsement?
An endorsement refers to the issues on the back of the permit, which states the validity period of the endorsement and the reason for entry (personal tourism, visiting relatives, or business endorsement).

2 What documents need to be prepared?
Within Guangdong Province, only an ID card and a Hong Kong and Macau travel permit are needed. If you are outside the province and are unsure, you can check the public account for guidance on document processing.

3 Is a nucleic acid test certificate required to go to the administrative hall?
Generally, if the area has not been listed as a high-risk area recently, a 24-hour nucleic acid test certificate is not required. In Foshan, only a negative nucleic acid test result after April 11 is needed.

4 How long does it take to complete the procedures at the administrative hall?
Follow the printed form, then go to the window to confirm personal information. After that, take a photo in front of the camera without any questions asked during the process. The fee is 15 yuan (once every three months).

5 Can I go directly to the window without an appointment?
Yes, but if you have an appointment and arrive early, you won't be able to print the form. You can consult at the window and explain the reason, and they will process it for you. However, since there were very few people that day and the staff were in a good mood, they made an exception. It's still best to make an appointment to be cautious!

6 Where to make an appointment?
You can make an appointment for business processing through the Guangdong Entry-Exit Administration public account for passports, Hong Kong and Macau travel permits, and Taiwan travel permits. Choose the city, select the service hall and time, and submit.

7 Can I still process it if I miss the appointment time?
Yes, you can process it before the service hall opens. However, you will need to take a new number upon arrival.
