What procedures do I need to go through when I return home?

1. First, at the airport, show your passport at the front desk and let the flight attendants check in and change their boarding passes. You can also choose a seat, window or corridor, security check and transit, that is, show your passport to the staff in the country you are going to. The staff will check whether they are fugitives or restricted people going abroad according to the registration card, find the boarding gate and board the plane.

When asked at the airport, the baggage will be checked by the flight attendant.

3. When you get off the plane and arrive at the arrival hall of the terminal, there will be signs and signs. Follow the signs. The place to pick up the checked baggage is generally the endless conveyor belt, so it is easy to find the baggage.

Passport and valid visa. China citizens abroad who return to China for a short period of time shall enter the country with a valid passport of the People's Republic of China or a valid travel permit of the People's Republic of China or other valid entry and exit documents. China citizens who have settled abroad who wish to return to China for settlement shall authorize the representative offices, consular offices or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in China before entering the country.

Get your passport ready.

Passport must be valid for more than 6 months. If it is less than 6 months, you should apply to the local consulate for a travel permit. When you apply for a travel permit, you should ask whether you can buy air tickets online, whether you can take a charter flight, whether you need to provide any supplementary documents, and whether you can apply for a travel permit health code.

You need to return to China with a valid visa.

Many people lost their passports or work visas, or their passports were detained by the company. If you want to return to China at this time, you still have to reissue your passport/travel permit. However, during the closure of the city, the embassy will not accept such business for the time being, and will give priority to the booked passenger-related business.

To return to China with a travel permit, the procedures for returning to China must include:

Passport or travel permit;

Your visa (the visa reissued by the Immigration Bureau is not a piece of paper, but a stamp with your entry information, flight and other information on it);

If it is more than 6 months, ecc clearance is needed.

Only if you have the above three points can you buy a ticket to return home.

There are two kinds of visas for customs clearance.

ECC-A: If it is a tourist visa (including landing visa), you don't need to apply for it six months ago, but you need to apply for it for more than six months, and you can apply for it at the airport/immigration office for less than one year. If you need to go to the Immigration Bureau in advance, the Immigration Bureau has also adjusted the office hours during the city closure.

ECC-B: visas that can prove long-term residence, such as work visas and student visas, must be cleared before returning to China, and can also be handled at the immigration office during the epidemic.

4. Arrange flights back to China.

When buying a direct flight, you'd better ask about the rules for returning and changing the ticket, and check your flight information when issuing the ticket. Because many Philippine flights have been cancelled, you can't directly refund cash, you can only refund vouchers.

Legal basis:

People's Republic of China (PRC) Exit and Entry Administration Law

Article 9 China citizens shall apply for passports or other travel documents when leaving or entering the country.

China citizens who want to go to other countries or regions also need to obtain visas or other entry permits. However, unless the China government has signed visa exemption agreements with other governments or the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs provide otherwise. China citizens who leave or enter the country as seafarers and work on foreign ships shall apply for a seaman's certificate according to law.
