With double-negative test results, Chinese passengers should apply for a green health code with a "HS" mark (referred to herein as HS QR code), and foreign passengers should apply for a certified health declaration form with a green health code "HDC" (referred to herein as HDC QR code) before boarding. The specific requirements are as follows:

2. Passengers bound for China via connecting flights must take nucleic acid and IgM anti-body tests in Denmark within 48 hours before boarding, and then take both tests for the second time in their last transit country within 48 hours before boarding the plane to China.
II. Applying for HS QR code or HDC QR code
1. Chinese passengers must upload to the WeChat Health Code app the pictures of their double-negative test results, which will be examined and verified by the Chinese Embassy in Denmark, and then they will be issued a green HS QR code.
