皇岗口岸港方口岸区于2026年7月31日零时正式启用，标志着这座经营36年的24小时客货综合口岸完成重建并实现功能转变[1]。作为国内首个24小时运行的陆路口岸，皇岗见证了深港往来的发展历程[1]。
口岸的历史功能正式落幕。早在1989年12月，皇岗口岸启用了货运功能，1994年11月实现货运24小时通关[1]。旅检方面，1991年8月启用旅检，2003年1月实行旅检24小时通关[1]。2025年12月20日，最后一辆入境货车通关；12月21日零时，货运通道正式关闭[1]。
重建后的皇岗口岸采用"一地两检"模式，设计通关流量为每日20万人次，港铁北环线支线开通后可进一步提升至30万人次[1]。货检功能关闭释放了超过40公顷的土地，用于河套深港科技创新合作区建设[1]。
Huanggang Port in Shenzhen's Futian District has officially launched its Hong Kong-side checkpoint area on July 31, 2026, marking the completion of a major reconstruction project [1]. The reopened facility shifts the port's operational focus from cargo handling to passenger traffic, ending 36 years of combined cargo and passenger services [1].
The port's cargo operations concluded on December 21, 2025, after the final inbound truck cleared customs on December 20 [1]. This closure freed over 40 hectares of land for development of the Hetao Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Zone [1]. Originally established in 1989 with cargo functionality, Huanggang became China's first 24-hour overland port when it launched round-the-clock freight operations in November 1994 [1]. Passenger services followed, with round-the-clock immigration clearance beginning in January 2003 after the port first opened passenger facilities in August 1991 [1].
The reconstructed port now operates under a "single site, dual clearance" model with a designed daily passenger throughput capacity of 200,000 people [1]. This capacity is projected to increase to 300,000 daily passengers once the MTR Northern Link extension opens [1].
