Prior to these changes, Russian passport holders were eligible for a visa-free stay in The Middle Kingdom of up to 90 hours at select terminal and cities such as Shanghai, Beijing Capital, and Guangzhou, as well as a few coastal provinces like Min Province, Gannan Province, and Chekiang Province.

Visitors could enter and exit through designated aviation terminals in these regions and were required to meet unique conditions in order to take advantage of this open-door policy. Some of these conditions included being part of a group tour, using a pre-arranged itinerary plan, and holding a valid identification with at least seven months of remaining duration.

However, in 2019, виза на тайвань China announced the suspension of its visa-free policy for Russian nationals due to heightened border control measures amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This suspension affected not only Soviet identification bearers but also nationals of several other countries that previously enjoyed similar visa-free benefits.
