Starting January 8, China has scrapped mandatory quarantine for inbound travelers so this page below is no longer maintained and is kept as an archive.
This page introduces all the up-to-date quarantine policies of China for inbound travelers. All these policies have been effective from April 1, 2021 (unless stated otherwise for a specific province).
