TRAVEL TO CHINA
With a few exceptions, entry into mainland China is still only permitted for Chinese citizens.
Exceptions:
In urgent and justified cases, however, visas can be applied for for key personnel. There is no guarantee that an exemption will be granted. In addition to the documents usually required, an informal letter from the sending company stating the necessity and urgency of the trip is required.
In addition, an invitation from the Foreign Affairs Office (FAO) of the province must be submitted, which is usually issued as a form. Contact with the local FAO is made by the Chinese business partner or the local branch office.
Persons entering China from abroad are subject to a two-week quarantine requirement without exception. Coronavirus tests are carried out on arrival. The costs of the quarantine must be borne by the company/traveler. After quarantine, onward travel within the country is possible under certain conditions, which vary greatly from region to region. Conditions and travel restrictions may change at short notice at any time.
Only Hong Kong residents are permitted to enter Hong Kong until further notice. Transit at Hong Kong airport is possible under certain conditions, but transit to and from mainland China is still not permitted.
The WKO will be happy to assist you in communicating with the local authorities.
Important: If you have a corresponding invitation, the ÖVKG will be happy to assist you in the usual way with obtaining the visa.
