What are the rules for foreigners to enter China?

202 1 The latest notice for foreigners entering the country is that after arriving at the first entry point in China, they will be tested for nucleic acid at the airport and quarantined at the designated place according to the requirements of the epidemic prevention department at the entry point 14-28 days (centralized quarantine medical observation 14 days+sedan chair returning home for 7 to 14 days). During and at the end of the quarantine, foreigners also need to conduct multiple nucleic acid tests according to the requirements of the local epidemic prevention and control center. If all the test results are negative, foreigners can end the quarantine.

I would like to remind my friends who have long-distance travel plans in the near future that they must carefully evaluate the necessity of the trip, and at the same time pay close attention to the policy and epidemic situation, and try their best to "do not travel unless necessary"!

202 1 What are the requirements for foreigners to enter China?

First of all, it should be clear that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Immigration Bureau issued two announcements on March 26th and September 23rd, 2000, respectively, namely, the announcement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of People's Republic of China (PRC) and the National Immigration Bureau on temporarily stopping the entry of foreigners with valid Chinese visas and residence permits (hereinafter referred to as Announcement No.3-26) and the announcement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Immigration Bureau of People's Republic of China (PRC) on allowing foreigners with three valid residence permits to enter the country.

The 9-23 announcement did not abolish the 3-26 announcement, but was an important supplement to the 3-26 announcement. Understand this, you will know which foreigners can go to China:

1 Foreigners with diplomatic, official, courtesy and C-visa can enter the country.

Foreigners who issue visas after March 28, 2020 can enter the country.

Foreigners can enter China with valid residence permits for work, private affairs and reunion in China.

Foreigners who hold residence permits for work, private affairs and reunion in China that expire after March 28, 2020 can re-apply for visas.
