Visa processing restarted
As reported on The Oriental-List, visa processing for China has restarted for some nations, but entry will be on condition not just of having evidence of having received vaccination against COVID-19, but of vaccination with one of China's vaccines. As approval of these vaccines has been given by few developed nations, and so in many cases even volunteering to receive these vaccines would be illegal, it will for now effectively be impossible to go to China even when quarantine requirements on return are finally lifted in our own countries.
As usual, politics trumps tourism revenues.

Tourism revenues mean something to Thailand, but mean hardly anything to China. In fact, i believe China would prefer that foreigners NOT come to China at all, forever.
And of course, if cannot enter China can avoid the anal Covid swabs.

How long is a piece of string?
The answer depends upon your nationality, the purpose of your visit, its intended duration, where you purchase the visa, and whether you involve an agency in the transaction. All you have to do is search for the China consulate in your capital city to find out details of current rules and requirements, costs, and the nearest consulate to your own location.

It is being reported that Chinese consulates in the US are now accepting records of vaccination with Pfizer Inc-BioNTech, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. In Iraq the Chinese consulates are accepting records of vaccines approved there, which include the Sinopharm and Oxford AstraZeneca vaccines.
