Germany's Federal Foreign Office continues to report Gyirong as impassable in both directions. Affected Tibet routes need to be rearranged.

| New rule | Gyirong impassable in both directions for an indefinite period. |
Current travel advice states that the Gyirong border crossing is impassable in both directions for an indefinite period. Do not plan to cross at this location.
Coordinate Tibet tours and transfers with your tour operator and check the border status again before departure. This report does not confirm a reopening.
The border closure is separate from visa requirements and special travel permits for Tibet. An issued visa does not guarantee a usable route.
