According to the provisions of Article 2 of the Measures for the Administration of China Citizens Traveling Abroad, the destination countries of China citizens traveling abroad are proposed by the National Tourism Administration in conjunction with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Public Security and other relevant departments, and announced by the National Tourism Administration after being approved by the State Council.

China is a country with a huge outbound tourism market. In recent years, more and more countries hope to become destinations for China citizens to travel abroad. Therefore, the examination and approval of overseas tourist destinations is a very serious and important work.

2. Examination and approval system for operating overseas tourism business

A travel agency that has obtained a business license for two years and has not been fined by the administrative organ for violating the legitimate rights and interests of tourists may apply to the tourism administrative department of the State Council for outbound tourism business.

Where a travel agency obtains an outbound travel business license, the the State Council tourism administrative department shall renew the travel agency business license. The travel agency shall register the change of business scope with the administrative department for industry and commerce with the Travel Agency Business License.

The tourism administrative department of the State Council may entrust the provincial tourism administrative department to accept the application of travel agencies for outbound tourism business, and make a decision on whether or not to grant permission.

The provisions of the Interim Measures for the Administration of Border Tourism shall apply to travel agencies applying for border tourism business.

The provincial tourism bureaus shall, according to the annual performance, business ability and service quality of travel agencies with overseas tourism business qualifications within their respective administrative areas, and in accordance with the principles of fairness, justice and openness, verify the arrangement of the number of overseas tourists organized by tour groups this year before the end of March each year.
