to arriving in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Your passport must have at least six months' validity remaining. If your visa is not in your valid passport, the biographical data on the valid passport and the visa must match exactly. Failure to provide any of these items may result in denial of entry and possibly additional penalties.</li> <li>U.S. citizens may apply for a ten-year multiple entry visa, which is useful for repeated travel.</li> <li>If you plan to work in the PRC, be sure to obtain the correct visa. You cannot work in the PRC on a student or tourist visa. Working without the proper visa may result in detention, deportation, criminal charges, or imprisonment.</li> <li>You must have a valid visa to exit the PRC. You must leave the PRC before the expiration of the listed duration of stay.</li> <li>Do not travel to the PRC if you have a warrant for your arrest in the United States.</li> </ul> <p><b>Lack of a visa, having an expired visa, or overstaying your visa will result in detention and/or fines.</b></p> <ul> <li>If your visa has expired or is due to expire, apply for a visa extension from the local <a href="https://en.nia.gov.cn/">Entry-Exit Bureau</a> before attempting to leave the PRC. Do not expect your request to be expedited, so apply ahead of time.</li> <li>Staying in the PRC on an expired visa may lead to a fine, imprisonment, and deportation.</li> <li>Visit the website of the <a href="http://us.china-embassy.gov.cn/eng/">Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in the United States of America</a> for current visa information. You can also review information on the PRC’s immigration and nationality laws.</li> </ul> <p><b>The Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR):</b> You must obtain a special permit for tourist travel to the TAR. This is different from a PRC visa. Special permits can often be obtained through a travel agent in the PRC. To learn more about entry requirements for the TAR or other restricted areas, check with the <a href="http://us.china-embassy.gov.cn/eng/">Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in the United States of America</a>.</p> <p>The U.S. government has limited ability to help if you encounter problems in the TAR. The PRC government does not usually allow U.S. government personnel to travel there, even to provide consular assistance to U.S. citizens.</p> <p><b>HIV/AIDS:<br> </b>The U.S. Department of State is unaware of any HIV/AIDS entry restrictions for visitors to or foreign residents of the PRC.</p> <p><b>Visa-Free Travel to Hainan</b>:<br> Citizens of the United States and certain other countries can enter the province of Hainan visa-free for up to 30 days for tourism, temporary commercial and trade activities, medical treatment, exhibitions and sports competitions, but excluding work and study. Travelers must arrive by direct international flight or via Hong Kong or Macau.</p> <p><b>Transiting the PRC:</b></p> <ul> <li>You may transit through certain international airports in mainland China without a PRC visa. However, this “visa-free travel” permit is typically only valid for specific cities or regions and is subject to change. Different rules apply for different ports of entry.</li> <li>Travelers may not pursue any official meetings or take part in any work-related activities while on a “visa-free travel” permit.</li> <li>How long you can stay and where you may travel while in transit varies by region.</li> <li>Transiting without a visa requires a valid passport with at least six months of remaining validity, a visa for your onward destination (if required), and an onward ticket from the same city.</li> <li>This visa-free transit is only allowed if the flight to the PRC departs from a different country than the onward destination.</li> <li>If you enter the PRC by flying into an airport, you must depart from the same airport.</li> <li>You must inform your airline upon check-in and get an endorsement stamp at the immigration desk before leaving the airport.</li> <li>Consult the <a href="http://us.china-embassy.gov.cn/eng/">Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in the United States of America</a> for a current list of eligible airports and more detailed guidance.</li> <li>PRC border officials have the authority to deny foreign travelers’ entry to the PRC without warning or explanation. The U.S. Embassy and Consulates General cannot intervene on your behalf if you are denied entry to the PRC.</li> </ul> <p><b>During Your Stay: </b></p> <ul> <li>You must register your stay within 24 hours of arrival in the PRC, and at each hotel or residence where you stay. Failure to do so could result in fines and deportation. You can register with hotel staff or the local police station. </li> <li>Foreigners must carry valid passports and PRC visas or residence permits at all times.</li> <li>Entry and exit requirements are strictly enforced. Do not overstay your visa. Only participate in activities allowed by your visa class. For example, if you are on a tourist visa or student visa, you should not be working.</li> <li>Police, school administrators, transportation officials, and hotel staff may check your visa to make sure you have not overstayed. If you overstay your visa’s duration of stay, you may be denied service by hotels, airports, and train stations, as well as face fines and arrest.</li> </ul> <p><b>Dual Nationality: The PRC government does not recognize dual nationality.</b> If you are a citizen of both the United States and the PRC and you enter the PRC on a PRC passport, Mainland Travel Permit for Taiwan Residents, or other PRC-issued travel document, local authorities will assert that you are a PRC citizen only and refuse to recognize you as a U.S. citizen. U.S. citizens with ethnic or historical ties to China may also be considered PRC nationals by local authorities. This could limit your ability to access certain consular services. For example, if you are detained, local officials could deny access to U.S. consular officials and assistance.<br> <br> Dual U.S.-PRC citizens may encounter challenges when seeking public benefits in the PRC. This can include enrolling in public schools, getting treatment at public hospitals and clinics, or obtaining PRC identity and citizenship documents, such as passports. The U.S. government may be unable to assist U.S.-PRC dual citizens in overcoming these challenges or navigating other consequences of PRC nationality. The PRC government may inconsistently apply interpretations of dual nationality.</p> <p>If you are a naturalized U.S. citizen or have a possible claim to PRC citizenship, and you are traveling to the PRC, inform yourself about PRC nationality law and practices relating to determination and loss of PRC citizenship. PRC authorities generally consider a child born in the PRC to at least one PRC-national parent to be a PRC citizen, even if the child was issued a U.S. passport at the time of birth. If you have or had a claim to PRC citizenship and your child is born in the PRC, prior to departing the PRC with your child, you may wish to contact the local Public Security Bureau and/or Entry-Exit Bureau for information on obtaining a travel document. If you have or had a claim to PRC citizenship and your child is born in the United States, please contact the <a href="http://us.china-embassy.gov.cn/eng/">Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in the United States of America</a> for specific information on the documentation requirements to bring your child to the PRC.</p> <p>Find information on <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/travelers-with-special-considerations/Dual-Nationality-Travelers.html" title="http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_1753.html" adhocenable="false">dual nationality</a>, <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/International-Parental-Child-Abduction/prevention.html" title="http://travel.state.gov/abduction/prevention/prevention_560.html">prevention of international child abduction</a>, and <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/customs-and-import.html">customs regulations</a> on our websites.</p> </div> </div> <div class='set_1 tsg-rwd-accordion-csi-show'> <a class="tsg-rwd-accordion-header" href="javascript:void(0);" title="Safety and Security" aria-expanded="false"> <h4 class="tsg-rwd-accordion-header-name-frame"> Safety and Security </h4> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-open'><span class="fa fa- fa-plus-circle"></span></div> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-close'><span class="fa fa-minus-circle"></span></div> </a> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-copy' role="region"> <p>Most visitors to the PRC will not encounter safety concerns. Traffic accidents are the most common safety concern for U.S. citizens. Training, capability, and responsiveness of PRC authorities vary by region and even within cities. The U.S. Embassy and Consulates General may not represent U.S. citizens in either criminal or civil legal matters. They have no law enforcement authority in the PRC.</p> <p>To ensure your safety and security in the PRC, you should:</p> <ul> <li>Take routine safety precautions.</li> <li>Pay attention to surroundings.</li> <li>Report any concerns to the local police.</li> <li><b>Call “110,”</b> the local equivalent to “911”. English services are often available, but you should not expect English services in remote parts of the PRC.</li> </ul> <p>Violent crime is not common in the PRC, however:</p> <ul> <li>While sanctioned demonstrations must be approved by PRC authorities, they can turn violent.</li> <li>Domestic unrest and terrorism can occur.</li> <li>Stabbings targeting foreigners, including U.S. citizens, have occurred. Perpetrators in such instances have had no known relationship with victims.</li> <li>Business disputes between U.S. citizens and local business partners can sometimes result in physical confrontation, detainment, or coercion. Go straight to the police if you feel threatened or relocate to a public place.</li> </ul> <p>Be alert to potential criminal schemes, such as:</p> <ul> <li><b>“Tourist Tea” and Dating App Scams:</b> Locals invite visitors out and leave them with an exorbitant bill.</li> <li><b>Phone Scams:</b> Callers pose as police officers and ask you to send money to resolve an identity theft or money laundering investigation. In these cases, DO NOT WIRE any money. If you receive any suspicious calls or requests, contact the local Public Security Bureau to verify the caller’s identity.</li> <li><b>Unlicensed or Unapproved Cabs:</b> Taxi and ridesharing services in China are normally licensed by authorities. Be cautious when using taxi or ridesharing services that are not accessible through mobile applications. If you use the locally approved taxi service, insist that the driver use the meter, and get a receipt. Have the name of your destination written in Chinese characters and ask the driver to remove your bags from the trunk before you get out of the taxi and before you pay.</li> <li><b>Counterfeit Currency:</b> With the ubiquitous and preferred use of mobile payment apps, counterfeit currency is less of a concern in the PRC now than in the past. When you need cash, only use ATMs at trusted financial institutions. Carry a variety of bills as vendors may have limited cash on hand to make change.</li> </ul> <p>Be alert to potential criminal schemes. These can include: internet, phone scams, dating scams, and financial scams.

Domestic violence in the PRC is rarely recognized as a crime.</p> <p><b>Tourism:</b> The tourism industry in the PRC is unevenly regulated. Safety inspections for equipment and facilities do not commonly occur. Hazardous areas/activities are not always identified with appropriate signage, and staff may not be trained or certified either by the PRC government or by recognized authorities. If you are seriously injured, sophisticated medical treatment is typically available only in/near major cities. First responders may be slower to respond in rural areas,  potentially delaying access to urgent medical treatment. U.S. citizens are encouraged to purchase medical evacuation insurance.  </p> <p>See our webpage for more <u><a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/your-health-abroad/Insurance_Coverage_Overseas.html">information on insurance providers for overseas coverage</a></u>.</p> </div> </div> <div class='set_1 tsg-rwd-accordion-csi-show'> <a class="tsg-rwd-accordion-header" href="javascript:void(0);" title="Local Laws & Special Circumstances" aria-expanded="false"> <h4 class="tsg-rwd-accordion-header-name-frame"> Local Laws & Special Circumstances </h4> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-open'><span class="fa fa- fa-plus-circle"></span></div> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-close'><span class="fa fa-minus-circle"></span></div> </a> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-copy' role="region"> <p><b>Criminal Penalties:</b> <b>You are subject to local laws.</b> If you violate local laws, even unknowingly, you may be expelled, arrested, or imprisoned.</p> <p>Some laws are also prosecutable in the United States, regardless of local law. See <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/emergencies/arrest-detention/crimes-against-minors.html">crimes against minors abroad</a> and the <a href="https://www.justice.gov/archives/jm/criminal-resource-manual-1617-extraterritorial-criminal-jurisdiction-18-usc-112-878-970-1116">U.S. Department of Justice</a> website.</p> <p><b>Arrest Notification:</b> If you are arrested or detained, ask police or prison officials to notify the U.S. Embassy or nearest U.S. Consulate General immediately.</p> <ul> <li>PRC authorities must notify a U.S. consular officer within four days; however, this does not always occur in a timely manner.</li> <li>A consular officer may be the only authorized visitor during your initial detention period.</li> <li>Bail is rarely granted.</li> <li>Detention may last many months before a trial.</li> <li>The U.S. Embassy or nearest U.S. Consulate General is unable to represent you in a legal matter.</li> <li>Travelers to the PRC should enroll in the State Department’s <a href="https://step.state.gov/step/">Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP)</a> and you may wish to have someone contact the U.S. Embassy or nearest U.S. Consulate General if you are detained.</li> <li>Please see the section on DUAL NATIONALITY for the limits on consular notification and access to dual nationals.</li> <li>See U.S. Department of State’s <a href="http://travel.state.gov/content/passports/english/emergencies/arrest.html">webpage</a> for further information.</li> </ul> <p>The PRC legal system can be opaque and the interpretation and enforcement of local laws arbitrary. The judiciary does not enjoy independence from political influence. U.S. citizens traveling or residing in the PRC should be aware of varying levels of scrutiny to which they will be subject from local law enforcement and state security. </p> <p>Certain provisions of the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China, such as “social order” crimes (Article 293) and crimes involving “endangering state security” and “state secrets” (Article 102 to 113), are ill-defined and can be interpreted by the authorities arbitrarily and situationally. Information that may be common knowledge in other countries could be considered a “state secret” in the PRC, and information can be designated a “state secret” retroactively.<br> <br> <b>Drug and Alcohol Enforcement:</b></p> <p>PRC law-enforcement authorities have little tolerance for illegal drugs, including marijuana. Penalties for possessing, using, or trafficking illegal drugs in the PRC are severe, and convicted offenders can expect long jail sentences, heavy fines, or the death penalty. Police regularly conduct unannounced drug tests on people suspected of drug use and have been known to enter a bar or nightclub and subject all patrons to immediate drug testing. Police may force you to provide a urine, blood, or hair follicle sample on short notice. A positive finding, even if the drug was legal elsewhere or consumed prior to arriving in the PRC, can lead to immediate detention, fines, deportation, and/or a ban from re-entering the PRC.</p> <p>The PRC also has strict laws against driving under the influence of alcohol that can lead to immediate detention on a criminal charge.</p> <p><b>Assisted Reproductive Technology: </b>In vitro fertilization (IVF) is widely and legally practiced. PRC law, however, strictly forbids surrogacy, and surrogacy contracts will not be considered valid. The use of reproductive technology for medical research and profit is strictly controlled.<br> <br> <b>Contracts and Commercial Disputes:</b> Before entering into a commercial or employment contract in the PRC, have it reviewed by legal counsel both in the United States and in the PRC. The <a href="https://www.trade.gov/china-contact-us">U.S. International Trade Administration</a> can assist you in identifying and vetting business contacts and opportunities but may not intervene in contract disputes. Many U.S. citizens have reported difficulty getting their contracts enforced by PRC courts or being forced out of profitable joint-ventures without opportunity to secure legal recourse in the PRC.<br> <br> <b>Counterfeit Goods: </b>Do not buy counterfeit or pirated goods. Bootlegs are illegal in the United States, and you may also be breaking local law by purchasing them.</p> <p><b>Cruise Ship Passengers: </b>Click here for <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/travelers-with-special-considerations/cruise-ship-passengers.html">safety information and travel advice</a>.</p> <p><b>Digital Payments: </b>The PRC has transitioned to almost a predominantly cashless society. Some mobile phone applications offer a digital payment solution for individuals visiting the PRC on a temporary or long-term basis. Often, payment is made through an individual using their mobile phone to scan a vendor or business’s QR code. The number of locations accepting foreign credit cards has decreased in recent years. Visitors to the PRC should research whether the locations they are visiting will accept foreign credit cards and familiarize themselves with mobile digital payment options prior to traveling to the PRC.</p> <p><b>Earthquakes:</b> Earthquakes occur throughout the PRC. Check <a adhocenable="false" href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/crisis_and_disaster_abroad_be_ready.html">here</a> for information about preparing for a crisis or disaster overseas.</p> <p><b>English/Secondary School Teachers:</b> English teachers in the PRC frequently report employment disputes which can result in questioning by local authorities, termination, lost wages, confiscation of passports, forced eviction from housing, and even threats of violence.</p> <p><b>Exit Bans:</b> Business disputes, court orders to pay a settlement, or government investigations into both criminal and civil issues may result in an exit ban which will prohibit your departure from the PRC until the issue is resolved. Even individuals and their family members who are not directly involved, or even aware of these proceedings, can be subject to an exit ban. Additionally, some local businesspeople who feel that they have been wronged by a foreign business partner may hire "debt collectors” to harass, intimidate, and sometimes physically detain foreign business partners or family members in hopes of collecting the debt. The U.S. Embassy or nearest U.S. Consulate General can provide a list of local attorneys who serve U.S. clients but are otherwise unable to intervene in civil cases. Local law enforcement authorities are generally unwilling to become involved in what they consider private business matters and may not provide the individual who has been barred from leaving the PRC with any written notice of the exit ban.</p> <p><b>Faith-Based Travelers:  </b>See our following webpages for details:<b></b></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/passports/en/go/faith-based-travel.html">Faith-Based Travel Information</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.state.gov/international-religious-freedom-reports/">International Religious Freedom Reports</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.state.gov/reports-bureau-of-democracy-human-rights-and-labor/country-reports-on-human-rights-practices/">Country Reports on Human Rights Practices</a></li> <li><a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/travelers-with-special-considerations/hajj-umrah.html">Hajj Fact Sheet for Travelers</a></li> <li><a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/passports/en/go/volunteer.html">Best Practices for Volunteering Abroad</a></li> </ul> <p><b>LGB Travelers:</b> Same sex marriages are not legally recognized in the PRC and local authorities will not provide marriage certificates to same-sex couples. There are no civil rights laws that prohibit discrimination or harassment based on sexual orientation though homosexuality has been decriminalized. Prejudices and discrimination still exist in many parts of the country. There are growing LGB communities in some of the largest cities in the PRC and violence against LGB individuals in the PRC is relatively rare. See <a href="https://www.state.gov/reports/2022-country-reports-on-human-rights-practices/china/">Section 6 of our Human Rights Practices in the Human Rights Report for the People's Republic of China</a> and read our <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/travelers-with-special-considerations/lgbtqi.html">LGB Travel Information page</a>.</p> <p><b>Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs):</b> In January 2017, the PRC implemented a law regulating the operations of foreign NGOs in the PRC. NGOs and their employees should ensure they are complying with all relevant statutory requirements, particularly if working in sensitive areas or fields. Additionally, the PRC government announced sanctions on five U.S.-based NGOs in December 2019.</p> <p><b>North Korea:</b> Do not travel to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) due to the serious risk of arrest and long-term detention of U.S. nationals. For further information, consult the <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/International-Travel-Country-Information-Pages/KoreaDemocraticPeoplesRepublicof.html">North Korea International Travel Information page</a> and the <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/north-korea-travel-advisory.html">North Korea Travel Advisory</a>.</p> <p><b>Political and Religious Activity: </b>Participating in unauthorized political or religious activities, including participating in public protests or sending private electronic messages critical of the government<i> </i>may result in detention and PRC government-imposed restrictions on future travel to the PRC. Although the PRC constitution permits freedom of religious belief, it does not permit freedom of religious practice and government officials are increasing pressure on domestic religious activities. The U.S. Mission to the PRC has observed an increase in the number of U.S. citizens being interrogated, detained, and/or forced to leave the country in connection with real or perceived religious proselytization. U.S. citizens have been detained and/or expelled for distributing religious literature, including Bibles, or engaging in unauthorized religious meetings. If you bring religious literature with you, local law dictates that it be a “reasonable amount” for your personal use. If you attempt to bring larger quantities, the literature will likely be confiscated and you may be fined, detained, or deported.<br> <br> <b>Social Insurance: </b>The PRC has a social insurance system to which foreigners who work in the PRC must contribute. When you sign an employment contract, you must apply for a social insurance number, and it is important that your employer work with you to comply with the regulations. Please check the official <a href="http://www.ssf.gov.cn/portal/yw/webinfo/2021/09/1632812253754637.htm">website</a> for updated information.<br> <br> <b>Social Media:</b> Social media accounts are widely monitored in the PRC. Local authorities may use information they deem critical, controversial, or that might involve illegal activity against both the poster of the material and the host of the social media forum under local law. Individuals have also been held responsible for the content that others place within social media spaces they control, such as the comments section under a post or within a group chat that an individual controls.</p> <p><b>Special Scrutiny of Foreign Citizens:</b> On occasion, U.S. citizens visiting or resident in the PRC have been interrogated or detained for reasons said to be related to “state security.” In such circumstances, you could face arrest, detention, or an exit ban prohibiting your departure from the PRC for a prolonged period. Dual U.S.-PRC nationals and U.S. citizens of Chinese heritage may be at a higher risk of facing such special scrutiny.

Hotel rooms (including meeting rooms), offices, cars, taxis, telephones, internet usage, digital payments, and fax machines may be monitored onsite or remotely, and personal possessions in hotel rooms, including computers, may be searched without your consent or knowledge. Security personnel have been known to detain and deport U.S. citizens sending private electronic messages critical of the PRC government.<br> <br> <b>Transferring Money to/from the PRC: </b>The regulatory environment in the PRC includes tightening capital outflow controls that can severely impact one’s ability to move money out of the country. Wire transfers may only be available to those who have an active bank account in the PRC. Ask your local bank location in the PRC for more information. The U.S. Department of State may be able to help transfer funds to a destitute U.S citizen overseas through our office in Washington, D.C., to a U.S. Embassy or U.S. Consulate General abroad. More information on this option is available <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/while-abroad/sending-money-abroad.html">here</a>.</p> <p><b>Travelers Who Require Accessibility Assistance:</b> U.S. citizens with mobility disabilities may face challenges while traveling in the PRC. Sidewalks often do not have curb cuts and many streets can be crossed only via pedestrian bridges or underpasses accessible by staircase. Assistive technologies for blind people and those with other vision disabilities are unreliable, and access to elevators in public buildings can be restricted. In major cities, public restrooms in places visited by tourists usually have a least one accessible toilet. See <a href="https://www.state.gov/reports/2022-country-reports-on-human-rights-practices/china/">Persons with Disabilities in the Human Rights Report for the People's Republic of China (2022)</a>.</p> <p><b>Typhoons:</b> The southeast coast of the PRC is subject to strong typhoons and tropical storms, usually from July through September. For current information, please consult the <a href="https://www.metoc.navy.mil/jtwc/jtwc.html">Joint Typhoon Warning Center in Honolulu</a> and the <a href="https://www.weather.gov/cphc%21">National Weather Service's Central Pacific Hurricane Center</a>.<br> <br> <b>Women Travelers:</b> If you are a woman traveling abroad, please review our travel tips for <a href="https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/before-you-go/travelers-with-special-considerations/women-travelers.html">Women Travelers</a>.</p> <p><b>Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region:</b> Extraordinary security measures are in place through the region. Authorities may impose curfews and restrictions on short notice. They may also engage in invasive surveillance techniques against individuals. Expect significant travel delays, avoid gatherings and demonstrations, always carry ID, and follow the instructions of local authorities. Travelers with ethnic ties to the region may experience special restrictions, discrimination, and even arbitrary detention.</p> </div> </div> <div class='set_1 tsg-rwd-accordion-csi-show'> <a class="tsg-rwd-accordion-header" href="javascript:void(0);" title="Health" aria-expanded="false"> <h4 class="tsg-rwd-accordion-header-name-frame"> Health </h4> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-open'><span class="fa fa- fa-plus-circle"></span></div> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-close'><span class="fa fa-minus-circle"></span></div> </a> <div class='tsg-rwd-accordion-copy' role="region"> <p><b>Quality of Care:</b> The standards of medical care in the PRC are not equivalent to those in the United States. Even in private hospitals or public hospitals with well-equipped wards, English-speaking patients frequently encounter difficulty due to cultural, language, and regulatory differences. Rural areas may have less developed facilities and inadequate staffing. Additionally, Rh-negative blood may be difficult to obtain; the blood type of the general Asian populace is Rh positive.<br> <br> <b>Payment and Insurance:</b> Ambulances in the PRC are often slow to arrive. Many do not have sophisticated medical equipment or trained responders. Payment in cash or via mobile payment app for services is often required prior to treatment, including emergency cases. Travelers will be asked to pay a deposit prior to admission to cover the expected cost of treatment. Hospitals in major cities may accept foreign credit cards. The U.S. Embassy and Consulates General in the PRC maintain lists of local <a href="https://china.usembassy-china.org.cn/medical-assistance/">English-speaking doctors and hospitals</a>.<br> <br> <b>The U.S. Government does not pay medical bills. </b>Be aware that U.S. Medicare/Medicaid does not apply overseas. Most hospitals and doctors overseas do not accept U.S. health insurance. You must provide payment and seek reimbursement.<b></b></p> <p><b>Medical Insurance: </b>Make sure your health insurance plan provides coverage overseas. Public hospitals require pre-payment for services before providing treatment to foreigners. Most care providers in the PRC only accept payments in cash or via local mobile payment apps.

Visit the <a href="https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/page/insurance">U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)</a> for more information on type of insurance you should consider before you travel overseas.</p> <p>We strongly recommend supplemental insurance to cover medical evacuation.</p> <p><b>Medication:</b> If traveling with prescription medication, make sure the medication is legal in the PRC by checking with the <a href="http://us.china-embassy.gov.cn/eng/">Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in the United States of America</a>. Carry prescription medication in original packaging, along with the prescription. Many commonly used U.S. drugs and medications are not available in the PRC, and counterfeit, low-quality knockoffs are prevalent. If you have medications sent to you from outside the PRC, customs authorities may confiscate them, or you may have to pay high customs duties.<br> <br> <b>Air Quality:</b> Air pollution is a significant problem in many locations.
