China Fully Eases Transit Visa Exemption Policy, Making China Travel Easier
Starting from December 17, 2024, China will fully relax its transit visa exemption policy. The stay duration for eligible foreign nationals will be extended from 72 and 144 hours to 240 hours (10 days). Additionally, 21 new ports of entry will be added, and the stay areas will be expanded to allow interregional (interprovincial) travel, giving travelers more flexibility to arrange their itinerary within the permitted regions.
