Private vehicle owners in Hong Kong can now apply for the Northbound Travel for Hong Kong Vehicles which allows travel between the city and Guangdong.

Approved applicants can travel between Hong Kong and Guangdong via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) starting 1 July.

To ensure the orderly implementation of the travel scheme, both local governments of Hong Kong and Guangdong agreed to set a cap on the number of applicants they would accept at the initial stages of the scheme.

Only 200 applications will be accepted per working day during the launch week. In the weeks after, the government will accept 300 applications per working day. Applicants will be chosen through computer balloting.
