In 2025, the number of Hong Kong and Macao residents crossing the border reached nearly 18 million, an increase of almost 300 percent compared to 2019.

To ensure safe and smooth border crossings, the station has introduced technology like AI algorithms and big data systems, mobile inspection terminals, and temporary manual inspection stations.

Smart lanes for fast facial recognition passage, online submission of entry cards for foreigners, and other tech-driven and personalized services have also been implemented.
