China Travel FAQs
- Can I travel to China now?
Yes, China is open and ready for tourists. To enter China, you only need a valid visa, passport and an antigen self-test 48hrs before boarding. All types of Chinese visas, including tourist visas (L visas) can be applied. You may also enter China if you hold a valid visa issued before March 28, 2020, without applying for a new one.
- How can I obtain my China visa?
For most international visitors, you can apply for a visa to enter China with a visa application form, your passport, proof of legal residence or stay, and your travel itinerary. You will receive your visa to enter China within 4-5 working days.
For American citizens, there is no need to provide proof of hotels, flights, or itineraries. Simply fill out the visa application form and submit your passport - that's all you need.
- What is the best time to visit China?
Although China's diverse climate makes it hard to give an answer that fits all places due to its sheer size, the warm spring and dry autumn are usually considered as the best time to visit China, compared to the cold winter and hot summer.
It is wise to avoid visiting China during the Spring Festival (between late January and February according to the lunar calendar) and the National Holidays (October 1-7), which see huge crowds of domestic tourists traveling around the country.

Though tipping is not a common practice in restaurants, you will be much appreciated if you tip your guide and driver in recognition for their excellent service.

- Do I have to use a VPN in China?

A reliable VPN is recommended to access these sites and services when traveling across the mainland.

When greeting, Chinese more like a brief handshake instead of embracing or kissing. When dining, don't stick your chopsticks in the bowl and don't use chopsticks to beat the bowl. Under any circumstances, don’t point your fingers at people. It is considered rude.
