Before June 5438 +2008 10, Saipan's visa-free policy was: individuals who went to the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands for business and tourism could enter the country without a visa, and those who held valid machine-readable travel passports in line with ICAO materials could enter the country without a visa. In addition, round-trip ticket holders with reserved seats can enter the country visa-free and stay for no more than 45 days.
However, in September 2008, the United States Customs and Border Protection issued an urgent notice. From 65438+200813, Saipan's tourism policy has changed. The main changes are as follows:
: the latest regulations of Saipan face-to-face signing in.
1. The maximum stay period of passport holders of the People's Republic of China is changed from 45 days to 14 days (inclusive);
2. Non-refundable and non-transferable round-trip air tickets for 14 days (inclusive) must be presented at the time of entry;
3. Applicants must travel to and from destinations outside the United States;
4. Those who are deported, refused entry or prohibited from entering the United States or Northern Mariana Island cannot enjoy the visa-free entry policy;
5. Those who have illegal records in the United States or Northern Mariana Island cannot enjoy the visa-free entry policy;
6. China citizens who are refused a B 1/B2 business/tourist visa in the United States cannot enjoy the visa-free entry policy;
7. Guam-Northern Mariana Islands visa-free information form (CBPI-736 form) shall be filled in and signed upon entry.
This is the main change. As can be seen from the above, the policy changes are actually quite big now. If you have been refused an American visa, you must enter the country with an American visa within the validity period. You cannot enter this country without a visa.
