Number of Chinese traveling overseas to reach 200m by 2030

The annual number of Chinese residents traveling overseas will reach 200 million by 2030, a global traveling solution supplier predicted.

The barriers for Chinese residents to travel overseas, such as visa requirements and transportation expenses, will come down in the future, and advanced technologies will help travelers select their tour routes more easily, Amadeus IT Group SA, a main global distribution system supplier headquartered in Spain, said in a report on China's tourism industry released on Wednesday.

Statistics from the National Tourism Administration show that Chinese residents made 83.18 million trips overseas in 2012.
