Visa & Entry

Chinese passport holders require a Schengen visa to enter the Netherlands. The visa allows stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period and must be applied for at the Dutch embassy or a VFS Global centre in China. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure from the Schengen zone with at least two blank pages. ETIAS pre-travel authorization will be required once the EU system launches, but it will not replace the visa requirement for Chinese nationals.

Getting to TFU

Metro Line 18 is the fastest and cheapest way out. The express service skips intermediate stops and reaches TFU from Chengdu South Railway Station in 35 minutes (CNY 10). The all-stop service takes 50 minutes for the same fare. From Tianfu Square, expect a transfer and a total of about CNY 30. Trains run from 6:00 to 23:00.

Airport buses cover five routes including Chunxi Road (Line 1), Jinsha Bus Hub (Line 2), and Chengdu East Railway Station (Line 4). Day fare is a flat CNY 15; night service (23:30 to 6:00) costs CNY 25. Lines 1, 2, and 3 run 24 hours. Taxis from Tianfu Square cost CNY 180-260 during the day and take 45-60 minutes via the expressway. DiDi ride-hail runs CNY 90-130 from pickup lanes on the east side of the arrivals hall.

Getting from AMS

Trains depart directly from inside the terminal (Schiphol Plaza) to Amsterdam Centraal every 10–15 minutes (15 min, €5.70). Direct intercity trains also serve Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, and Eindhoven without requiring transfers. NS Hispeed connects to Brussels (1h 50m) and Paris CDG (3h 20m).

Taxis use a meter; Amsterdam Centraal costs €35–50. Ride-hail apps (Uber, Bolt) are cheaper at €25–40. Car rental agencies are at the terminal. Bus 397 to Leidseplein is the budget option (€5.50).

Amsterdam Climate

Temperate maritime climate, mild and frequently overcast year-round. Winters are cold (0–7°C) with regular rain and occasional snow or freezing fog. AMS handles de-icing efficiently but heavy snowfall (rare) causes cascading delays across the network. Fog is the primary winter disruption risk, particularly November through February.

Summers are warm (17–24°C) with long days and moderate rain. Thunderstorms in July–August cause brief but sharp delays. Strong crosswinds from the North Sea affect small aircraft year-round. Pack a waterproof layer regardless of season.
