U.S., China Agree on New Visa Policy to Spur Growth

The U.S. and Chinese government have agreed to extend visa validity to citizens of the other country, President Barack Obama announced Monday in Beijing. Obama outlined the new requirements on his first day in China at the CEO Summit of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation meeting.

Short-term business and tourist visas will be increased from one year to 10 years, and student and exchange visas will now be valid for five years, also up from one year.

The White House said the new rules “will improve trade, investment and business ties by facilitating travel and offering easier access to both economies.” The U.S. also seeks to make it easier for foreign students to study at U.S. universities and add American jobs by increasing the amount of Chinese tourists. According to the White House, 1.8 million Chinese tourists visited the U.S. in 2013, generating $21.1 billion to the U.S. economy.

The new visa agreement “a game-changer” in terms of the U.S.-China relationship, an administration official told reporters. Obama has emphasized his “pivot to Asia,” an effort to refocus on the region, but the effectiveness of this policy has been criticized as crises in many other parts of the world have commanded the president's attention.
