BEIJING, July 30 (Xinhua) — China has now unilaterally or mutually granted visa-free entry to citizens of 75 countries as part of the country's efforts to streamline visa regulations and promote international exchanges, Wang Zhizhong, director of the National Immigration Administration, said at a press conference on Wednesday.

During the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025), the number of countries whose citizens enjoy visa-free transit through China has also increased to 55. The number of checkpoints through which one can enter the country has grown to 60, covering 24 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government, the head of the department said.

In addition, the visa-free transit period has been extended to 240 hours. According to Wang Zhizhong, all these measures have greatly facilitated the travel of foreigners visiting China for tourism, business and other purposes.

“Based on their personal experiences, many foreign visitors gained insight into the real and multifaceted China,” he said. -0-
