SEOUL, November 8 (AJP) - China will allow visitors from South Korea and eight other countries to enter without visas for up to 15 days, starting Friday and lasting until the end of the year. This marks the first time Beijing has included Seoul in such an arrangement.
The temporary program applies to ordinary passport holders from South Korea, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Slovakia, Andorra, Monaco and Liechtenstein, traveling for business, tourism, family visits or transit. Those seeking to work or study in China will still need visas.
