Ratificira se Sporazum med Vlado Republike Slovenije in Vlado Ljudske republike Kitajske o ukinitvi vizumov za diplomatske in službene potne liste, podpisan v Pekingu 1. junija 1994.

Sporazum se v izvirniku v slovenskem in angleškem jeziku* glasi: Da bi nadalje razvijali prijateljske odnose med Republiko Slovenijo in Ljudsko republiko Kitajsko ter omogočili lažje stike med državljani obeh držav, sta se Vladi Republike Slovenije in Ljudske republike Kitajske (v nadaljevanju imenovani »pogodbenici) dogovorili naslednje:

Državljani Republike Slovenije, ki imajo veljavne diplomatske ali službene potne liste Republike Slovenije, ter državljani Ljudske republike Kitajske, ki imajo veljavne diplomatske ali službene potne liste Ljudske republike Kitajske, in njihovi mladoletni otroci, ki so vpisani v njihove potne liste, so oproščeni pridobitve vizuma za vstop na ozemlje druge pogodbenice, prehod preko njenega ozemlja in bivanje na njem za obdobje, ki ni daljše od 90 dni.

1. Državljani ene ali druge pogodbenice, ki imajo veljavne diplomatske ali službene potne liste in ki opravljajo uradne dolžnosti na ozemlju druge pogodbenice kot člani diplomatske misije, konzularnega predstavništva ali mednarodnih organizacij, so v času opravljanja svojih dolžnosti oproščeni pridobitve vizuma za vstop ali odhod z ozemlja druge pogodbenice. 2. Določila prvega odstavka tega člena veljajo tudi za zakonce in mladoletne otroke zgoraj omenjenih oseb.

Državljani ene ali druge pogodbenice, omenjeni v 1. in 2. členu tega sporazuma, ki nameravajo bivati na ozemlju druge pogodbenice več kot 30 dni, morajo prositi pristojne organe druge pogodbenice po prihodu na njeno ozemlje za dovoljenje za bivanje v skladu z njenimi predpisi.

Državljani ene ali druge pogodbenice iz 1. in 2. člena tega sporazuma morajo vstopiti na ozemlje druge pogodbenice, potovati preko tega ozemlja ali ga zapustiti skozi pristanišča, ki so odprta za mednarodne potnike, ter izpolniti potrebne formalnosti v skladu z ustreznimi predpisi pristojnih organov zadevne države.

Ta sporazum ne omejuje pravice ene ali druge pogodbenice, da nezaželenim osebam ali nesprejemljivim državljanom druge pogodbenice prepovedo vstop na svoje ozemlje ali prekinejo njihovo bivanje na svojem ozemlju brez navedbe razlogov za tako ravnanje.

Vsaka od pogodbenic lahko deloma ali v celoti začasno razveljavi ta sporazum iz razlogov javnega reda, državne varnosti in ljudskega zdravja. Vendar pa je treba drugo pogodbenico po diplomatski poti ustrezno obvestiti o taki odločitvi, še preden začne izvajati to začasno razveljavitev ali jo ukine. Dodatne določbe ali dopolnitve tega sporazuma so možne z izmenjavo not obeh pogodbenic po opravljenih posvetovanjih.

Pogodbenici bosta pravočasno po diplomatski poti izmenjali vzorce svojih potnih listov iz 1. člena, še preden bo ta sporazum začel veljati. Vsaka od pogodbenic bo v primeru kakršne koli spremembe v obliki svojih potnih listov o tem po diplomatski poti obvestila drugo pogodbenico 30 dni pred njihovo uvedbo in ji poslala vzorce novih potnih listov.

Ta sporazum ostane v veljavi za nedoločen čas. Če ena od pogodbenic želi ukiniti ta sporazum, mora o tem obvestiti drugo stran v pisni obliki po diplomatski poti, in ta sporazum bo prenehal veljati na 90. dan po datumu takega obvestila.

Sporazum o medsebojni oprostitvi vizumov in pristojbin za vizume med Vlado bivše Socialistične federativne republike Jugoslavije in Vlado Ljudske republike Kitajske z dne 19. aprila 1979 bo nehal veljati med Vladama Republike Slovenije in Ljudske republike Kitajske z dnem, ko bo začel veljati ta sporazum.

Ta sporazum bo začel veljati 30 dni po datumu njegovega podpisa.
