Conditions and important exceptions

For citizens of the listed passport-issuing country holding an ordinary passport and visiting the Chinese mainland for tourism, up to 30 days under the recorded policy.

Conditions and important exceptions

Annex II short-stay visa exemption: at most 90 days across the Schengen area in any rolling 180-day period, not 90 days in each country. Ordinary-passport tourism only. Travel-document validity, purpose, funds, return travel and admission checks still apply. Check the official ETIAS portal for the travel date; an authorisation is not a visa.

Application steps and guide

For a visa application, use the consulate of the sole or main destination; for equal-length visits, check the first-entry rule. Consult the destination authority for the document checklist and appointments. Count earlier Schengen visits as well. Official visa policy: https://home-affairs.ec.europa.eu/policies/schengen/visa-policy_en ; ETIAS: https://travel-europe.europa.eu/etias_en .

Conditions and important exceptions

Tourism with an ordinary passport only. No paid work. Border admission and other entry conditions still apply. Read all nationality-specific notes on the official page before booking. Visa validity is not the permitted duration of stay. The visit pass issued at entry controls the authorised stay; also check SG Arrival Card rules.

Application steps and guide

Open the official source → read the passport-specific note → confirm the permitted activity and duration → verify passport validity and supporting documents → check again before departure.

Conditions and important exceptions

From 15 September 2026, this passport is listed for a 30-day exemption. Check TDAC, onward travel, funds and any applicable land/sea entry limits in the source. Requirements for a flight originating in Finland/Estonia on the embassy page relate to its local applicants, not every global traveller.

Application steps and guide

Read the linked official policy and confirm passport validity, the permitted activity, arrival formalities and the actual admission period before departure. A policy expiry is not automatically a personal departure deadline.
