The Exit and Entry Administration Law of the People's Republic of China (Chinese: 中华人民共和国出境入境管理法) defines two terms in Chinese that are translated to "mainland": [10] Dàlù (大陆; 大陸), which means 'the continent'. Nèidì (内地; 內地), literally 'inland' or 'inner land'. It excludes Hong Kong and Macau. [11]
