Following the unified arrangement of the National Immigration Administration, the border inspection authorities in China rigorously implemented the "Two Announcements and One Reminder" policy. Specifically, the border inspection authorities made predictions of traffic flows at their respective ports, based on scientific grounds, and released the relevant information to help exit-entry travelers better make their travel plans and avoid peak hours to prevent congestion. In addition, focusing on the traveler volume changes at their ports, the border inspection authorities deployed more police officers and other staff workers, and opened sufficient inspection channels, ensuring smooth and efficient exit-entry services for Chinese and foreign travelers. Furthermore, the border inspection authorities enhanced cooperation with other relevant authorities to make careful arrangements for exit-entry passenger flow management during peak hours, take comprehensive measures for transportation, and adeptly deal with the challenges caused by extreme weather conditions, ensuring the timely and efficient dispersal of high volumes of travelers. The ports around China provided safe, efficient and smooth exit-entry services during this year's National Day holiday.
