To further facilitate cross-border travels, China has decided to apply unilateral visa-free policy to six more countries on a trial basis, which involves travelers holding ordinary passports from Switzerland, Ireland, Hungary, Austria, Belgium and Luxembourg. From March 14, 2024 to November 30, 2024, citizens from the above-mentioned countries holding ordinary passports can be exempted from visa to enter China and stay for no more than 15 days for business, tourism, family visit and transit purposes. Those who do not meet the visa-free policy requirements from the six countries still need to apply for visas in advance before entering China.
