Holders of regular Spanish passports traveling to Beijing for tourism do not need to apply for an L-type tourist visa and are eligible for a 30-day visa-free entry policy. The stay duration is calculated consecutively from the date of entry, with a 7-day itinerary fully meeting the visa-free requirements. It is recommended to carry round-trip flight tickets, hotel booking confirmations, and other materials for verification. For plans to extend the stay or engage in activities requiring non-visa-exemption purposes (e.g., work/study), apply for the corresponding visa in advance through the Chinese Visa Application Service Center.
