The latest and most complete: the list of 73 visa-free visa-on-arrival countries for Chinese passpor

Since the outbreak in January 2020, almost all countries have cancelled their pre-pandemic visa-free and visa-on-arrival policies for other countries, as have countries that previously granted Chinese ordinary passports visa-free and visa-on-arrival. But we know that these policies are only temporarily suspended, not cancelled. In the post-pandemic era, these policies will still be reinstated.

Those who use ordinary passports to leave the country still need to abide by the entry restriction policies of various countries, and the entry policies issued by them shall prevail. With the development of the epidemic, countries are constantly adjusting their entry policies. Therefore, if you are going abroad at this time, you should know the latest entry policies.

Although countries still have entry restrictions, we still need to pay attention to the list of countries that are visa-free and visa-on-arrival for Chinese ordinary passports. Let's see together:

Recently, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi visited the Maldives. China and Maldives signed a formal agreement to grant each other's citizens 30-day visa-free treatment. At the end of November 2021, China and the Dominican Republic signed an agreement to mutually exempt ordinary passports from visas.

Oman is called the Switzerland of the Middle East by Europeans and Americans. Oman announced in December 2020 that it will exempt Chinese citizens from visas. The requirements are relatively simple, with a passport valid for more than 6 months, return ticket, hotel reservation, health insurance, and can afford the cost of their stay in Oman, and the stay period does not exceed 10 days.

The Omani rial is the third most valuable currency in the world (Oman has oil and gas), second only to the currencies of Kuwait and Bahrain. 1 Omani rial is about 18 yuan, so the price is relatively high.

Another recently added visa-free country is Uzbekistan, which allows visa-free stays for 7 days. Uzbekistan is the country with the most abundant tourism resources among the five Central Asian countries, and has been vigorously developing tourism in recent years.

The currency name of Uzbekistan is the som. The maximum face value is 100,000 som issued in 2019, which is about 82 yuan. The previous maximum face value was 50,000 som, and the smallest face value was 100 som. Cheap prices, friendly and simple folk customs. Uzbek and Uyghur do not need translation and can basically understand each other.

It should be noted that some of the 39 countries that implement visa-on-arrival for Chinese ordinary passports actually have to meet certain conditions to travel, and it is difficult for most people to meet the conditions. However, there are less than 39 of them that can actually be signed on arrival.
