Destination & Booking Info

Your need for a China visa depends on your nationality and the length and purpose of your stay. Most international travellers must apply for a visa, while citizens of a select group of countries, including Singapore, Brunei, Japan and most European nations, can enter China visa-free for short stays of up to 30 days for tourism and business. Travellers holding ordinary passports from these countries can also use visa-free entry for transit and visits. China separately runs a 24-hour visa-free transit for almost all foreign travellers passing through to a third destination, and a 240-hour visa-free transit policy for 55 nationalities at 60 ports across 24 provinces, including Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin.

China runs almost entirely on cashless payments, with Alipay and WeChat Pay dominating daily transactions, so carry cash only for rural areas and emergencies. For the best rates, exchange money at state-owned banks such as Bank of China, ICBC, China Construction Bank and Agricultural Bank of China; a physical passport is mandatory for foreign-exchange transactions for non-residents. Airport exchange counters and hotel services give noticeably worse rates and are only worth using for urgent taxi fare right after landing. Foreign passport holders, and visitors from Hong Kong, Macau or Taiwan staying under 183 days, can claim a tourist VAT refund of 8-11% on eligible purchases (minimum RMB 500 in one store per day) within 90 days of the purchase. At Beijing Daxing arrivals, customs keeps a green channel for passengers with nothing to declare and a red channel for goods worth over ¥5,000 (about US$685) or restricted items.

When you book, check the baggage allowance on your fare and confirm which Beijing airport you land at, since PEK and PKX sit on opposite sides of the city. Booking on Trip.com lets you compare the four carriers on the route in one place.
