China will implement a visa-free policy for citizens of Portugal, Greece, Cyprus and Slovenia to further facilitate personnel exchanges between China and foreign countries.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian on Monday told a daily news briefing that starting from October 15, 2024 to December 31, 2025, holders of ordinary passports from the four European countries will be eligible for a visa exemption policy when traveling to China for purposes such as business, tourism, visiting relatives or transit for up to 15 days.

Meanwhile, China is urging relevant countries to provide more visa facilitation services to Chinese nationals, Lin added.
