Singapore, China to set up a 30-day visa-free travel arrangement

The countries plan to implement the arrangement in early 2024.

Singapore and China unveiled plans to implement a 30-day visa-free travel arrangement in early 2024.

During the 19th Joint Council for Bilateral Cooperation (JCBC), both sides stated that they were still working out the operational details of the arrangement.

The visa-free entry arrangement will strengthen people-to-people links and deepen cultural and educational exchanges between the two countries.

During the JCBC, Singapore and China inked 24 memoranda of understanding and agreement.

The parties also reviewed the progress of bilateral cooperation in areas such as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), trade, sustainability, agriculture, food security, digital economy, smart cities, green economy, science and innovation, renewable energy, finance, public health, and the China-Singapore Guangzhou Knowledge City, which is a State-Level Bilateral Cooperation Project.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
