Before you book your flight

Your planning checklist.

• Get written appointment confirmation directly from the provider.
• Ask your treating clinician about fitness to travel and the expected recovery period.
• Check current entry requirements with the relevant Chinese embassy or consulate for your nationality and itinerary.
• Check insurance exclusions for planned overseas treatment and complications.
• Arrange accommodation, accessibility support, and a companion if needed.
• Keep copies of important documents and a plan for urgent local care.

Use this as a conversation aid. Confirm individual requirements with your clinician, provider, insurer, and relevant authorities.
