Please find the full message shared with CBBC below. For more details we recommend contacting the Chinese Embassy in London directly.
"China and the UK are important partners for trade and economic cooperation, with vibrant cross-border exchanges of goods, services and personnel. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused major disruptions to bilateral economic and trade flows. In order to maintain and facilitate bilateral cooperation, and ensure stable and unimpeded industrial and supply chains in both countries, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China is in close communication with the British Embassy in Beijing on the implementation plan for the “fast-track” entry arrangement for travelers on essential and urgent visits in the sectors of business, logistics, production and technical services between China and the UK."
