Official policy notes官方政策说明
China-Hungary Visa Exemption Agreement: Holders of ordinary passports may stay for up to 30 days per entry without a visa.
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.
- 55 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 — major international airports and seaports: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Xi'an, Hangzhou, Kunming, Harbin 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.
Hungary travelers ask常见问题
Do Hungary citizens need a visa for China?
No — Hungary ordinary-passport holders can currently enter China without a visa for stays of up to 30 days per entry (visa-free entry (trial)). Rules are set by China's National Immigration Administration and re-verified by our consultants before any booking is confirmed.
How long can Hungary passport holders stay in China per entry?
Up to 30 days per entry under the current visa-free entry (trial) policy. Your admitted duration is stamped by the border officer on arrival — the stay must be completed within that window.
Can Hungary passport holders use the 240-hour visa-free transit?
Yes — and in practice you rarely need it: full visa-free entry (up to 30 days) already covers tourism and business visits. Countries on the full visa-free list may of course also use the 240-hour transit; our lists show each country's best available policy.
What documents does a Hungary 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.
