China Extends 240-hour Visa-Free Transit Policy Coverage to 55 Countries with New Addition of Indonesia
The
National Immigration Administration (NIA) announced today that,
starting June 12, 2025, nationals of Indonesia may enter China under the
240-hour visa-free transit policy. This brings the total number of
eligible countries to 55.
Citizens
of 55 countries, including Indonesia, Russia, and the United Kingdom,
may transit through China using 240-hour vise-free transit policy if
they hold valid international travel documents and interline tickets
with confirmed dates and seats to a third country or region. They may
enter China through any of the 60 open ports across 24 provinces
(autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central
government),such as Beijing and Shanghai, and stay in designated areas
for up to 10 days. During this period, visa-free transit travelers may
engage in tourism, business, exchange visits, or family visits.
Activities such as work, study, or news reporting still require prior
approval and appropriate visas.
According
to the NIA, adding Indonesia to the list of countries eligible for the
240-hour visa-free transit policy is a significant measure to implement
the principles established in the central conference on work related to
neighboring countries and China's commitment to deepening regional
cooperation with ASEAN countries. This measure will further strengthen
bilateral ties, facilitate trade and investment, and promote cultural
exchange and mutual understanding between China and Indonesia. Moving
forward, the NIA will continue to deepen the institutional openness of
immigration management, continually improve the policies facilitating
entry and exit for immigrants, and enhance the convenience for foreign
nationals to study, work, and live in China. With improved management
and service measures, the NIA invites more international friends to come
to China.
