Ecuador has announced the temporary suspension of its visa-waiver policy for Chinese citizens, beginning July 1, 2024, in response to unusually high migration rates. This decision comes as Ecuador has increasingly become a major transit point for Chinese migrants attempting to enter the United States.
The Ecuadorian government expressed concern over the high volume of Chinese nationals overstaying their permitted 90-day visits or departing through unauthorized routes. The suspension aims to enhance security measures for foreign nationals while preventing human trafficking and migrant smuggling.
