As Beijing budges towards opening back up, some services are dependent on individuals proving that they have a clean bill of health. For example, starting Apr 12, anyone traveling into Beijing and wanting to stay at a hotel must provide proof of a negative nucleic acid test performed within the last seven days as well as a green code of 'No abnormal conditions' on the Beijing Health Kit app (健康宝). Businesses may also require that their employees undergo a test prior to returning to the office.

To help process the influx of tests, Beijing has specified over 40 hospitals and health-related institutions where individuals and groups can now go for testing. Tests cost between RMB 220-300 and results on average take 24 hours to process, though select hospitals may be able to send you a digital result in half that time.
