Foreigners with Chinese green cards can enter the country through an electronic admittance process at Beijing Capital International Airport, saving time and reducing complex procedures.
The so-called e-channel has been in operation since July 25, and almost 5,000 foreigners who had been granted permanent resident status in China can benefit from the new policy, China Immigration Inspection authorities said in Beijing.
These foreigners can quickly pass the inspection after they swipe their green cards on the e-channel, said Ji Lixia, assistant head of CII's Beijing branch.
