China extends visa-free transit stays to 240hr & 60 entry points


The National Immigration Administration (NIA) announced today that it will fully relax and optimize the visa-free transit policy, which is effective immediately. The stay duration for foreign nationals eligible for visa-free transit has been extended from the previous 72 hours and 144 hours to 240 hours (10 days).

Additionally, 21 ports of entry and exit have been added for visa-free transit individuals, further expanding the allowed areas for visa-free transit travelers. Individuals from 54 eligible countries, including Russia, Brazil, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and Canada, traveling from China to a third country (region), can enter visa-free through any of the 60 open ports in 24 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), and stay within the allowed areas for visa-free transit travelers for no more than 240 hours.

With 21 newly added ports in Shanxi, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui (Huangshan), Fujian, Jiangxi, Shandong, Hunan (Zhangjiajie), Guangxi, Hainan, Sichuan (Chengdu) and Guizhou (Guiyang), the number of opened ports has increased from the original 39 to 60.

A notable feature of the policy adjustment is the introduction of cross-regional travel that allows foreign visitors to move freely across the 24 specified provincial-level regions during their 10-day stay.
