Article 6 The State shall establish exit/entry border inspection authorities at the ports open to foreign countries.

　　Chinese citizens, foreigners as well as transport vehicles shall exit or enter China via the ports open to foreign countries, or via the places approved by the State Council or by the departments authorized by the State Council under special circumstances. Personnel and transport vehicles that exit or enter China shall be subject to exit/entry border inspection.

　　Exit/entry border inspection authorities shall be responsible for relevant administration work in the restricted zones of ports.

　　第六条 国家在对外开放的口岸设立出入境边防检查机关。

　　中国公民、外国人以及交通运输工具应当从对外开放的口岸出境入境，特殊情况下，可以从国务院或者国务院授权的部门批准的地点出境入境。出境入境人员和交通运输工具应当接受出境入境边防检查。

出入境边防检查机关负责对口岸限定区域实施管理。根据维护国家安全和出境入境管理秩序的需要，出入境边防检查机关可以对出境入境人员携带的物品实施边防检查。必要时，出入境边防检查机关可以对出境入境交通运输工具载运的货物实施边防检查，但是应当通知海关。
