Shanghai residents now can register at their neighborhood or village committees with valid identity documents and buy masks at designated pharmacies instead of having to queue up outside.

After receiving notification from a committee, residents can go to designated pharmacies to buy the masks. Currently, one household is allowed to make only one registration and buy five masks. Those who register first can get their masks first.

Starting Feb. 2, residents can register with identity documents (e.g. residence certificates, identity cards, passports and Chinese mainland travel permits for Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan residents). After verification, neighborhood or village committees will issue a ticket with an order number, pharmacy address and a stamp of the committee.

From Feb. 3, the committees will follow the registration order to inform the residents who can buy masks.

Notice:

This is for everyone, including expats. But you need to show your temporary residence permit and your passport to prove you live in the neighborhood.
