Valid Exit-Entry Permit (EEP) to HK / Macau I know it is ridiculous for Chinese that we need the EEP to travel to HONG KONG or Macau. Even though these two islands do belong to China. I am planning to have a 10 days trip to HONG KONG&MACAU. So I went to the Public Security Bureau to apply for my EEP. I though it would be easy that all I need to do is pay for everything they need. But it turned out the process is very very complicated. Firstly,I have to copy my household register and ID card (but the police said my pic in the ID card does not alike myself thus I went to the police station to change a new one.) Secondly, I needed to take a picture(just the same with the passport picture) which cost me 40 RMB. Lastly, I filled some papers about my information. The whole process took 3 hours to finish it. Tired but I was happy I can finnally visit the two islands.
