Before you fly
You'll have up to 30 visa-free days — line these up before you fly:
- Fill in China's digital arrival card online before landing — check if you need it.
- Get an eSIM that works in China before departure — pick one in 30 seconds.
- Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay — most places don't take foreign cards directly. Get them working before you land.
- Plan how you'll get between cities — China runs on high-speed rail. Compare train routes like Shanghai–Suzhou and Suzhou–Beijing, or build a day-by-day itinerary matched to your time in China.
