For those planning to come to China for work or reunite with family, the PU Letter prerequisite has been lifted.
Here is a breakdown of what is required for what kind of visa:
| Visa Category | Key Documents | Notes |
| Z Visa (Work) | – Notice of Foreign Work Permit (NFWP) – WHO-Approved Vaccination Certificate (see details below) | May be joined by spouse/partner and dependents who are younger than 18 years old. |
| S1/S2 Visa (Family Reunion) | – Relationship Certificate – WHO-Approved Vaccination Certificate (see details below) | Open to relatives of foreigners working in China. |
Note: After landing in China, travelers will have to follow the quarantine guidelines in China, which change from one city to another and region to territory.
What is a WHO-Approved Vaccine?
The list of WHO-Approved vaccines are as follows:
- Pfizer-BioNTech
- Moderna (mRNA-1273)
- J&J COVID-19 Vaccine
- Oxford/AstraZeneca

Note:
- For those applying for an M Visa (Business visa), they are still expected to apply for a PU Letter to visit China unless they have a Chinese Vaccine Certificate (Sinopharm or Sinovac).
- Business travelers are not allowed yet to bring along family members on their trips.
