In order to travel to China, you need to acquire the appropriate visa (not applied to some nationalities). If you are going to a trade show in China, you need to apply for a business visa. Health codes, however, are no longer needed in China. When registering for a trade show in China, we recommend checking whether the organizer offers the invitation to China needed when applying for a business visa.
