Official policy notes官方政策说明
China and Bosnia and Herzegovina maintain a mutual visa-exemption agreement: citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina holding ordinary passports may enter visa-free, with a stay per the agreement (typically up to 90 days). The 240-hour visa-free transit (designated ports across 24 provinces, up to 240 hours in permitted areas) and the Hainan 30-day visa-free entry (work and study excluded) also apply.
Visa and transit rules are set by China's National Immigration Administration and may change; the final call at the border always rests with border inspection officers. Our consultants re-verify your case before any booking is confirmed.
The 240-hour visa-free transit, in short240小时过境免签
Enter via approved ports with a confirmed onward ticket to a third country or region, and stay up to 10 days — travel between cities inside China is allowed.
- 57 nationalities eligible — most of Europe, CIS and the Americas; visa-free nationalities can of course also use it.
- Up to 10 days — the whole stay must fit within 240 hours from entry, and travel between cities inside China is allowed.
- Designated ports only — 65 international airports and seaports across 24 provincial-level regions: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Xi'an, Hangzhou, Kunming and more.
- Confirmed onward ticket to a third country or region — leaving mainland China for somewhere other than where you arrived from. Border officers check this.
Bosnia and Herzegovina travelers ask常见问题
Do Bosnia and Herzegovina citizens need a visa for China?
No — Bosnia and Herzegovina ordinary-passport holders can currently enter China without a visa (up to 90 days per entry, mutual visa exemption). Rules are set by China's National Immigration Administration and re-verified by our consultants before any booking is confirmed.
How long can Bosnia and Herzegovina passport holders stay in China per entry?
Up to 90 days per entry under the current mutual visa exemption policy. Your admitted duration is stamped by the border officer on arrival — the stay must be completed within that window.
Can Bosnia and Herzegovina passport holders use the 240-hour visa-free transit?
Yes — and in practice you rarely need it: full visa-free entry already covers tourism and business visits. Countries on the full visa-free list may of course also use the 240-hour transit.
What documents does a Bosnia and Herzegovina traveler show at China immigration?
Just an ordinary passport — no application form and no embassy visit. Keep your return flight booking and hotel addresses at hand in case officers ask about the purpose of your visit.
