1. How can I return to China after my visa expires?

If your visa expires, you need to go to the embassy or the foreigner management agency for help in time.

Those who want to leave the country after the expiration will be regarded as deliberately overstaying, and fines and imprisonment are inevitable. Also investigate your itinerary during your stay in the local area to find out whether you have a criminal record, as well as your local residence, work place and so on. In the end, you will be deported, and the country will blacklist you and you will not be allowed to enter the country again for several years.

Second, what is a visa?

Visa is a kind of license issued by a government agency of a country according to its own laws for foreigners applying for entry, exit or passing through the country.

The visa is usually attached to the passport or other international travel documents held by the applicant. Under special circumstances, valid passports or other international travel documents can be written on a separate sheet. With the progress of science and technology, some countries began to issue electronic visas and biological visas, which greatly enhanced the anti-counterfeiting function of visas.

Visas are generally endorsed on passports, some are endorsed on other travel documents instead of passports, and some are issued separately. For example, immigration visas in the United States and Canada are A4 paper, and Singapore also issues separate paper visas to foreigners. Generally speaking, a visa must be used at the same time as a passport to be valid.
