Dialogue and normalisation

According to the MEA brief of July 2026, India and China have several dialogue mechanisms at various levels, across bilateral political, economic, cultural, people-to-people and consular matters, along with dialogues on regional and global issues. The brief notes that their frequency had been impacted over the past few years by the state of bilateral relations and COVID-related restrictions.

Following what the brief calls the gradual normalization, the second edition of the India-China strategic dialogue was held in New Delhi on 10 February 2026. It was held at the level of Foreign Secretary and, on the Chinese side, Executive Vice Foreign Minister.

People-to-people ties

The brief describes people-to-people ties as an important component of the bilateral relationship.

Kailash Mansarovar Yatra

In 2025, the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra resumed for Indian pilgrims through both the Lipulekh and Nathu La routes, after a nearly five-year-long hiatus. The brief states that the Yatra also continued in 2026, with the first batch from Nathu La flagged off in June 2026.

Direct flights

Direct flight services connecting designated points between the two sides were resumed in October 2025. The brief does not name the points served.

Trans-border rivers

The brief also states that exchanges on water resources and trans-border rivers have been maintained between India and China. An Expert-Level Mechanism (ELM) was set up in 2006 to discuss interaction and cooperation on provision of flood season hydrological data, emergency management and other issues regarding trans-border rivers.

As of the brief, sixteen meetings of the ELM have been held, and the last one was held in New Delhi on 22-23 April 2025.

Visas and consular matters

The brief gives no information on visa requirements. Travellers should check current requirements with the Embassy or the relevant consulate before travelling.

Consulates and honorary consuls

Honorary consuls have limited powers compared with an embassy or a career consulate. China has no honorary consulates listed in India, and requirements should be confirmed with the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in New Delhi.
