The Chinese Embassy in India is starting a new online system for visa applications on December 22, 2025.
People can fill out forms and upload documents on the official website.
The visa application center in New Delhi is open from Monday to Friday.
This comes after India started giving tourist visas to Chinese people again in November 2025.
Before that, only business visas were being given.
This is part of efforts to improve relations between the two countries, including resuming flights and pilgrimage trips.
The Chinese Embassy in India will launch an online visa application system on December 22, 2025.
Applicants can fill out forms and upload documents online via the official portal.

India resumed issuing tourist visas to Chinese nationals in November 2025, following a five-year suspension.
