China will adopt a visa-free entry policy for Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain.
From June 9, 2025, to June 8, 2026, people from the four countries holding ordinary passports will be allowed to enter China visa-free and stay for up to 30 days, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said.
With this move, China's visa-free policy will have covered all Gulf Cooperation Council member countries, Mao said.
China has extended its 240-hour visa-free transit policy and Hainan's 30-day visa-free entry policy to citizens of Kyrgyzstan and Vietnam, the National Immigration Administration said on Aug 20.
