Shanghai will provide more convenience and further improve the tourism environment for inbound tourists in 2019 to make the city a tourist destination more influential globally, the city government said on Wednesday during the annual working conference about Shanghai's tourism.
Authorities will explore expanding the coverage of the current 144-hour visa-free transit electronic application system, according to the Shanghai Administration of Culture and Tourism. At present, people of 53 nationalities can enjoy a 144-hour visa-free transit through a number of cities in China, such as Shanghai and Beijing.
In addition, Shanghai will also explore self-service clearance for outbound foreigners from the city this year, according to the administration.
