Good to Know Before You Depart
A few practical details to settle before your journey to China.
Visa and entry
Read visa information and confirm application requirements with the Chinese embassy or consulate serving your location.
Select where you are applying to check documents, appointments and local procedures. Visa centres do not serve every location.
Check entry, stay and visa-exemption policies. An English version is available on the official site.
Check the latest requirements for your passport nationality, purpose of visit and length of stay. Follow the information published by the relevant consular and immigration authorities.
Travel insurance
Check with your insurer whether your policy covers the planned health checks, any treatment, existing conditions, cancellation and emergency evacuation or repatriation. Hospital billing and insurance reimbursement are separate matters.
Emergency contacts
In mainland China, call 120 for an ambulance, 110 for police or 119 for fire services. Anhe’s contact number is for travel coordination and is not an emergency line.
Weather, clothing and luggage
Check the forecast for each destination shortly before departure and follow your airline’s baggage rules. Bring comfortable shoes and suitable layers. Carry medicines in their original packaging and check entry requirements for any restricted items.
Preparing for a health check
The hospital will confirm which tests are appropriate and any fasting, medication or preparation instructions. Ask the hospital before changing medication. Confirm appointment time, identification requirements and report language in advance.
Language and accessibility
Tell Anhe your preferred service language, mobility needs and dietary preferences when enquiring. We will confirm which arrangements are available for your dates.
Reports and follow-up
Before departure, confirm how and when reports will be issued, who will explain them and how to arrange any follow-up. Anhe can coordinate communication; medical interpretation is provided by the hospital.
Payments and booking conditions
Review the written quote, deposit arrangements, inclusions and cancellation conditions before paying. See Pricing & Payment for Anhe’s accepted payment methods.
Anhe’s role
Anhe coordinates travel, accommodation, language support and appointments. Hospitals provide clinical services and explain their risks. Our coordination does not guarantee a medical outcome or replace professional medical advice.
