Germany now eligible for 15-day visa-free entry to China

📅 13 July 2026 VISA UPDATE

Big update for my German friends — as of July 2026, German passport holders can enter China visa-free for up to 15 days. This joins the growing list of countries that China has opened visa-free access to over the past year, including France, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Malaysia, and Singapore. The full list now covers over 15 countries. No visa application, no paperwork — just show up with your passport. Check your country's status before booking.
