China has introduced a visa-free regime for citizens of six countries: Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, France, Germany, and Malaysia. This was stated by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mao Ning.
The visa-free regime is temporary – it will operate as an experiment from December 1, 2023, until November 30, 2024.
Citizens of the above countries will be able to stay in China without a visa for up to 15 days.
“China has decided to expand the scope of the unilateral visa-free regime to facilitate the movement of people between China and the outside world for the benefit of intensive development and maintaining a high level of openness,” explained a representative of the country’s Foreign Ministry.
