No. Those who meet legal circumstances such as mutual visa exemption agreements or 24-hour direct transit visa exemption may enter China without a visa. Foreign nationals holding a Chinese residence permit do not need to apply for an additional visa.
Foreign nationals who do not fall into the above categories need to apply for the corresponding visa in advance according to their entry purpose before coming to China.
