Russia and China Launch Visa-Free Travel to Boost Tourism and Business

Russia and China have initiated a reciprocal visa-free travel arrangement. Citizens from both countries can now visit for up to 30 days without requiring a visa. This move is anticipated to stimulate tourism in Primorsky Territory, especially among Chinese travelers.

The new regulations permit visits for tourism, business, or personal trips. Officials predict a substantial increase in Chinese visitors to the region. These travelers are likely to spend more and seek diverse services, from accommodations and dining to guided tours.

The agreement eliminates visa obstacles for short-term travel between Russia and Asia. Primorsky Territory aims to capitalize on this change by attracting more Chinese tourists. Increased visitor numbers and extended stays could bring substantial economic advantages to the region.
