According to the “Ad Hoc Quota Trial Scheme for Cross Boundary Private Cars” (also known as “Self- drive Tour Scheme"), during the first stage, qualified Hong Kong private car owners may apply for such quotas to drive to Guangdong for a short stay. The specific arrangements for the second phase, which allows cars from the mainland to enter Hong Kong, will be further studied after the smooth operation of the first phase.
