The Denpasar port health office (KKP) has started requiring passengers from China and Malaysia to fill out a Satu Sehat Health Pass (SSHP) three days before their arrival to the island, to record passengers' health issues such as high body temperature, cold, or flu symptoms.
"Airlines from China and Malaysia need our special attention, though we have yet to implement health protocols," Denpasar KKP head Anak Agung Ngurah Kesumajaya said on Jan. 6, as quoted by detikBali.
More than 1.18 million Chinese tourists traveled to Bali in 2019, second only to Australia at 1.2 million, according to Statistics Indonesia.
In 2023, China was the third-largest contributor of foreign tourists to Bali, with over 280,111 tourist visits, far below Australia and India, which contributed 1.32 million and 440,415 tourist visits, respectively.
