Paragraph 1
China has made a big
to its visa system. More people can now visit the
without a visa. Citizens of 74 countries now have visa-free
to enter for up to 30 days. In
, citizens from 54 countries can stay in-
for 240 hours, but they must have a
to a third country. China's government is slowly expanding its visa-free
process, so it can grow its tourism
and its economy. It started allowing
from more countries in 2023. Almost every European country and many nations from South America, Asia, and the Middle East have been added since then. More than 20 million
visitors entered China without a visa in 2024.
