Chinese citizens cannot go back to China.
2 comments

I know what you mean, but in legal terms Chinese citizens still have a "right of entry". In reality of course there are no flights and there are onerous rules about quarantines and "Green Codes".

De-facto they are preventing citizens from entering but de-jure they are still allowed. But I mean it's China, is anyone surprised here?

Yes, they can.
I would really appreciate if you tell me how to get back to China from US. I can't even book a flight as all flights are cancelled. https://www.ikkyinchina.com/
Via Hong Kong
Need permit, you can't get it in US.
Ah, fair point. I’d forgotten about the HK / China travel permit bit.

Edit: assume via Singapore also doesn’t work?

Direct flight from Singapore to Xiamen is 14.5k USD, but you can't book it anyway. http 404
