公安部副部长齐延军于2026年7月24日宣布，中国将优化免签过境和入境政策，并进一步数字化更多边境服务。目前，50个国家公民可享单方面免签入境，65个口岸支持240小时过境免签。2026年上半年入境旅客达1780万人次，其中77.7%为免签入境。
核心观点
On July 24, 2026, Vice Minister of Public Security Qi Yanjun announced China will refine its visa-free transit and entry programs and digitize more border services. Currently, citizens of 50 countries have 30-day visa-free entry (extended through December 31, 2026), and 55 nationalities can use the 240-hour transit program through 65 ports. In H1 2026, 17.8 million visitors entered visa-free — 77.7% of all foreign arrivals, up 20.6% year-on-year. China also set a target of 190 million inbound visits by 2030.

政策变化
齐延军副部长在2026年7月24日的记者会上作出两项具体承诺。首先，政府将“优化”现有免签过境和单方面免签入境政策——这意味着简化流程，而不是缩减准入。其次，更多边境和移民服务将被数字化，建立在2025年11月推出的**中国数字入境卡（CDAC）**基础上，该服务已允许旅客在登机前在线提交入境申报。
这一公告背后是强劲的入境旅游数据。根据Travel And Tour World和国家移民管理局（NIA）报道的数据，2026年上半年，1780万外国旅客免签进入中国，占全部国际入境旅客的77.7%，同比增长20.6%。更宏观的目标——2030年前实现1.9亿人次入境——表明免签准入是一项长期战略，而非临时试验。
截至2026年8月，当前政策格局如下：
- 50个国家享有单方面30天免签入境（延长至2026年12月31日）。近期新增国家包括英国和加拿大（2026年2月）。
- 55个国家/地区公民符合240小时（10天）免签过境政策条件。
- 目前已有65个入境口岸支持过境免签政策——较2024年12月的60个增加，据国务院新闻办公室称。
- 240小时过境规则仍要求行程为A国 → 中国 → B国（真实过境）。
下一步
- Verify your passport's eligibility against the official 50-country list on the NIA website (en.nia.gov.cn). 2. Fill out the China Digital Arrival Card (CDAC) through the NIA 12367 app before departure. 3. Book flights with genuine A → China → B routing if using the 240-hour transit program. 4. Save the NIA 12367 hotline (+86-10-12367) for 24/7 English immigration inquiries.
可能变化的部分
The July 24 'refinement' is a policy direction, not an immediate legal change. Specific rollouts — new digital tools, expanded e-channel eligibility, possible additions to the 50-country list — will come through NIA announcements over months. The December 31, 2026 extension means another renewal decision is expected by November 2026. Entry port procedures vary — larger airports have foreigner e-channels, smaller ports use manual counters.
常见问题
Does the July 24 announcement mean visa-free entry to China is getting harder or easier?
Easier. Vice Minister Qi Yanjun said 'refine' — streamline and improve, not restrict. The 190M inbound visit target by 2030 confirms this direction.
Which 50 countries have visa-free entry to China in 2026?
Most EU countries, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, UAE, Qatar, UK, Canada, and more. The U.S. is not on the list but can use 240-hour transit.
How long does the 240-hour transit visa-free policy let me stay?
Up to 10 days from clearing immigration, limited to the permitted area of your entry port. You need onward travel to a different country than your origin.
When does the current 30-day visa-free policy expire?
December 31, 2026. A renewal decision is expected before then, likely November 2026.
