According to the regulations of China, ordinary residents are not allowed to take more than $2,000 in cash out of the country. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome to be found out when leaving the country. However, if you have a Foreign Exchange Entry and Exit Permit, you can generally carry no more than $65,438+00,000 in cash with you. Specific practices are as follows:

1. If the carrying amount is less than $2,000 (including $2,000), it is not necessary to apply for the Import and Export Permit for Carrying Foreign Exchange (hereinafter referred to as the Carrying Permit), and the customs will allow it to be released.

2. When carrying $2,000 to $4,000 (including $4,000), the bank will issue a "carrying card" with the carrier's passport, valid visa and other materials, and the "carrying card" will be stamped with the bank seal, and the customs will release it with the "carrying card" stamped with the bank seal.

3. When carrying more than US$ 4,000, the carrier should first apply to the bank for a "carrying card" with passport, visa and other related materials, and then apply to the foreign exchange bureau where the bank is located for approval with the "carrying card" stamped with the bank seal and related materials. The foreign exchange bureau shall verify the authenticity of the source and use of the foreign exchange it carries. After verification, the certificate of carrying issued by the bank shall be stamped with the seal of approval of the foreign exchange bureau. Customs clearance shall be based on the "Carrying Certificate" stamped with the seal of the bank and the approval stamp of the foreign exchange bureau.

4. Generally speaking, entry-exit personnel are not allowed to carry more than $65,438+00,000 in foreign currency cash. If it is really necessary to take foreign currency cash with the equivalent value of 10000 or more out of the country due to special reasons, the carrier shall apply to the foreign exchange bureau where the deposit or foreign exchange purchase bank is located. The foreign exchange bureau strictly examines the source and use of its foreign exchange and issues approval documents to banks when necessary. The bank shall issue a "carrying certificate" with the approval document of the foreign exchange bureau. The carrier shall go to the foreign exchange bureau with the Certificate of Carriage and affix the seal of approval of the foreign exchange bureau. Customs clearance shall be based on the "Carrying Certificate" stamped with the seal of the bank and the approval stamp of the foreign exchange bureau.
