Shanghai's night skyline and skyscrapers — visa for China

Visa-free travel

China Visa

Visa-free entry: 30 days per trip, up to 90 days in any 180.

Azerbaijani citizens can travel to China without a visa, but the arrangement has precise limits. No single trip may exceed 30 days, and the total stay within any 180-day period must not go over 90 days. Keeping track of these limits is the traveller’s own responsibility.

At the border you may be asked for a return ticket, an address of stay and documents explaining the purpose of the trip. Study, work or stays longer than 30 days are not covered by this arrangement and require a separate visa.

China is chosen both for trade fairs and wholesale buying trips and for tourism; the Guangzhou fairs are especially popular with business travellers. The route often involves a transfer, and travel within the country needs separate planning. Viza.az helps with tickets, hotels and building the route.

No, but the arrangement has precise limits. No single trip may exceed 30 days, and the total stay in a 180-day period must not go over 90 days.

You can stay a maximum of 30 days on a single entry. If you go several times, the sum of all the days within 180 days must not exceed 90. Keeping that count is the traveller’s own responsibility.

A return ticket, an address of stay and documents explaining the purpose of the trip. On trade fair trips an invitation and confirmation of registration are useful.

In that case a visa must be obtained in advance. The visa-free arrangement cannot be extended, and going over the limit affects future entries.

During fair periods hotels fill up months ahead and prices rise. Booking and flying early is good for both the budget and the planning.

No. Both require a separate visa; the visa-free arrangement covers short trips only.

The metro and high-speed rail networks are well developed in the big cities, but buying tickets and finding your way require local apps. Planning the route in advance saves time.

We plan tickets and hotels around the trade fair calendar and build the route within the city. We also help with keeping track of the 30/90-day limit.
