What is “Fast Track”?

Chinese government departments are working with some countries and regions to set up "express access" channels for the entry of personnel of foreign-invested enterprises amid the virus outbreak, China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) said on 14th,May.

Global companies operating in China could report any difficulties to the ministry or local commerce authorities if their foreign employees find it hard to enter the country, MOFCOM spokesperson Gao Feng said, noting that "we will actively coordinate with relevant departments."

Due to the rapid spread of COVID-19 across the world, China on March 28 temporarily halted entry by most foreign nationals.

The Chinese government has discussed with the German chamber of commerce and also with the German Embassy a fast track procedure to get employees of German companies back to China, Jens Hildebrandt, Executive Director of the German Chamber of Commerce in China, told the Global Times on 14th,May.
