China exempts citizens of France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Malaysia from needing entry visas. Until November 30th 2024, holders of ordinary passports from the above countries are allowed to enter China visa-free for business, tourism, visiting relatives and friends, and transit for no more than 15 days.

 

Under the “144-hour visa-free transit policy”, foreign travelers of 54 eligible countries and regions in Europe, America, Oceania and Asia, can apply for a 6-day entry permit to certain Chinese cities, including Guangzhou and the Guangdong province.

After landing at the Guangzhou Baiyun Airport, passengers who meet the policy conditions, hold a passport valid for no less than 3 months, a connecting ticket to a third country (which means they must transit to another country, including Hong Kong, before flying back home) with a fixed date and seat within 144 hours, a hotel reservation form, can fill out the “Arrival Card For Temporary Entry Foreigners,” and submit it to apply for 144-hour visa-free transit.
