The first "aimless sea excursion" entry and exit permit in the country was issued in Shanghai.

Today, the first "purposeless sea travel" entry and exit permit in the country was issued in Shanghai. After landing, tourists can rely on relevant policies to realize visa-free travel, short sea vacations, and further enrich domestic cruise travel options. The first "purposeless sea travel" entry and exit permit, seemingly a simple piece of "paper", is actually an institutional innovation of the national immigration management department. In view of the special attributes of purposeless sea travel "not docking, round-trip in the open sea", the Shanghai Public Security Entry and Exit Administration Department, with the approval of the National Immigration Administration, took the lead in introducing this new policy to facilitate cruise travel entry and exit. In the future, in addition to using ordinary passports, tourists can apply for a special entry and exit permit with their identity cards.
