China's Leap | “​China travel” traffic translates to “China shopping” growth

China is becoming even more traveler-friendly with visa-free stays extended to 240 hours, over 19 million foreign arrivals in the first half of the year—including 13.64 million visa-free entries and a lower ¥200 threshold for tax-free shopping that has driven a 248% surge in tax-refund users and 98% growth in refund sales, making China more open, convenient, and exciting than ever.
