Within 48 Hours, Nine Chinese Embassies Issued Urgent Notices

Although China has controlled the epidemic for the first time, the COVID-19 epidemic continues to spread, and the world is facing a new round of crisis. Within 48 ore, nine Chinese embassies in Russia, India, France, Britain, the Philippines, Ukraine, Bangladesh, Italy and Belgium issued notices to suspend the entry of people from these countries with Chinese visas.

Holders of diplomatic, official, courtesy and C-visa are not affected. If there are special circumstances that need to come to China urgently, they can apply for a visa from the local Chinese embassy. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said that in order to curb the spread of COVID-19 epidemic, China had to take stricter measures and adjust overseas personnel to come to China according to international practice. I hope everyone can understand that once the situation changes, the Chinese Embassy will disclose it to the outside world as soon as possible.

Zhong Nanshan also stressed that people should remain vigilant against the COVID-19 epidemic, and pay attention to distinguishing the difference between influenza and SARS-CoV-2 as the flu season approaches.
