The number of Chinese citizens receiving the new extended US B1 business and B2 tourist visas surged in December and January, just a few months after the US and China announced a change to their international visa reciprocity agreement. The US issued 351,650 business and tourist visas to Chinese citizens in December and January, a year-on-year jump of 68.2%. At this time last year, the US had given 209,100 visas, a US State Department official said. Chinese visitors have accounted for one-fifth of the growth in overseas travel to the US since 2008.
