The duration of stay for foreigners under the transit visa exemption has been extended from the original 72 hours and 144 hours to 240 hours (10 days), with an addition of 21 new entry and exit ports for transit visa-exempt personnel, further expanding the areas permitted for activities... On December 17, the National Immigration Administration announced that it will comprehensively relax and optimize the transit visa exemption policy starting today. The 10-day stay, inter-provincial travel, and a larger range of stay will allow foreign citizens to engage in multi-destination and in-depth tours in China. Tourism companies and destinations will also adjust their product offerings to provide more high-quality in-depth travel products for foreign civilians. According to Li Mengran, Media Public Relations Manager of UTour Group, the optimized transit visa exemption policy provides convenience for foreign tourists to better experience the comprehensive view of China from two dimensions: "one vertical and one horizontal." Wang Yi, Sales Director of Peking Baida Tourism Co., Ltd., told reporters that for travel agencies, the extended 10-day stay can lead foreign tourists to more intangible cultural heritage experiences and interactive activities.
