Expanding visa-free policy is a milestone in China’s journey toward greater openness and also shows its confidence on the global stage. So far, 38 countries enjoy unilateral visa-free access, and the maximum stay for visitors has been extended to 30 days as of Nov. 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the third quarter of 2024, the number of foreigners who entered China reached 8.186 million, up 48.8 percent year on year. Among them, 4.885 million entered China visa-free, a year-on-year increase of 78.6 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“China Travel” enables the world to have a direct appreciation of the development achievements of Chinese modernization, and experience the charm of Chinese culture, the new scenes of life-changing technology, the beautiful life of Chinese urban and rural residents, and the ecological advancement in China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
