Do I need to apply for a visa in advance to leave landing visa countries?

There is no need to apply for a visa in advance.

Visa on arrival means that the applicant does not directly obtain a visa for other countries from the host country, but holds a passport and entry permit issued by the relevant authorities of that country, and then issues a visa after arriving at the port of that country.

This means that if China tourists want to apply for landing visa, they don't need to apply for a visa through the embassy or consulate before going abroad, but only need to hold relevant certificates and apply for a visa at the relevant national gates after arriving at their destination. In this way, the process of applying for a visa is time-saving and fast.

Under many special circumstances, such as war, forced landing of diverted flights and sudden death of immediate family members, some countries allow China citizens to apply for visas on arrival under unforeseen circumstances. However, ordinary tourism or business purposes cannot be exempted.

Extended data:

Although the visa on arrival is convenient, it does not mean 100% entry protection. Visa on arrival usually comes with additional conditions. It is reported that the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will regularly publish and update the list of China citizens with ordinary passports to relevant countries and regions through the China Consular Service Network.

Generally, foreign landing visa will attach certain restrictions, such as inviting units or individuals to apply for entry permits in advance at the immigration office of the destination country, or providing round-trip air tickets, local contacts and proof of economic ability when applying for landing visa.
