How many days can you stay in China?

Short answer

30 days

no visa needed; counting details below

Continuously per entry: 30 days
How the days are counted: afresh on every entry
Does leaving reset the counter: Yes — leaving and re-entering starts the clock again

The number of days comes from the dataset and can be trusted; the way they are counted is an assumption. Verify at the border.

The window type is unconfirmed: the term is counted per entry. Check at the border — in some countries the same days are counted in total over a period.

Worth knowing about the route

Foreigners must register within 24 hours of arrival.
Driving in with your own car is only possible with a permit arranged in advance: temporary Chinese plates and a temporary licence for the driver, travel only along the approved route, validity as stated in the permit and no longer than 3 months. Visa-free entry does not cover the car; the paperwork is usually done through a Chinese host company.

Can you bring your own vehicle?

Maximum term: 90 days
How the term is counted: together with the driver’s stay

Length-of-stay rules come from several sources. Some are verified by the OpenVan.camp Editorial team against official sources and show a verification date. The rest are extracted from open sources, most often Wikipedia, and are shown with a source link and the date they were retrieved. Vehicle import rules are shown only once verified. The underlying visa requirement matrix is the passport-index-data dataset (MIT licence), updated 17 February 2026.

Reference data, not legal advice. Rules change without notice — check with the consulate or at the border.
