Earlier, the Chinese authorities canceled the requirement for the mandatory presentation of a PCR test - from March 01, 2023, it could be replaced with an antigen express test made no earlier than 48 hours before entering the country.
Also, a few months ago, an agreement was renewed on visa-free trips for tourist groups between Russia and China, which we wrote about earlier.
However, the programs of the authorities of a number of regions of China, which were in force before the COVID-19 pandemic, allowed visa-free stay of foreign citizens for 72 or 144 hours in the territory of China with the possibility of exiting the airport transit zone (for example, it was possible to stay in Beijing without a visa for 144 hours, in Chengdu 72 hours), until now they have not resumed their action (more in our news)
At the moment, on the website of the Chinese Embassy it is reported that regarding the policy visa-free entry for 72 and 144 hours, it is necessary to consult the immigration service at the place of entry, telephone number for consultation: telephone code entry zone +12367.
