Overview

Travelers can enter and leave China more than once over a predetermined validity period (e.g., six months, one year, or more) with a China multiple-entry visa. Depending on the type of visa, each stay is usually restricted (e.g., 30–90 days per entrance), making it helpful for business or regular visits.
