Support us China will tighten its exit-entry regulation on September 15, 2026. Photo: Baidu China will tighten its exit-entry rules from September 15 to stop experienced engineers from leaking knowhow in industries subject to export controls and deter tourists from visiting “high-risk” nations such as Japan. The State Council’s new regulation, which spans 19 articles and was announced on July 31, sets up a coordinated system to warn citizens of overseas risks, verify the purpose of each exit-entry application and tighten restrictions on both citizens and foreigners. The export control clause does not name specific sectors, but Chinese commentators said it targets fields where Beijing has already imposed its own restrictions, including electric vehicle (EV) batteries, solar panels and rare earths. “There are many situations that could endanger national security and interests, and it is hard to spell out every one of them in legislation,” said Cheng Xiezhong, a legal scholar and professor at the China University of Political Science and Law.
