On December 17th, 2024, China announced a significant relaxation of its visa-free transit policy, extending the stay for eligible foreign travelers to 240 hours (10 days) from the previous 72 and 144 hours. Effective immediately, 21 additional ports are now designated for visa-free entry, and the areas for transit travelers have been expanded. To ensure timely visa processing and secure the best rates for hotels and flights, please confirm your participation in RX China events early. Exhibitors are advised to book a Chinese-speaking assistant through the exhibitor manual. There are no more public health restrictions, and masks are no longer required. International travelers must have a valid passport and visa, unless eligible for visa-free entry or visa-on-arrival.
