China entry & visa-free checker
Check how you can enter China
Start with your passport, not a destination. Find a maintained entry option for your trip, then confirm its conditions with official sources before booking.
Entry rules follow your passport and trip, not your choice of city.
This checks maintained national exemptions and screens 240-hour transit routes for mainland China. Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan have separate entry rules.
