In plain words
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (外交部) sorts overseas safety risks into 4 levels, and the highest is called "do not travel for now" (暂勿前往). From September 15, 2026, avoiding high-risk countries and regions has been written into administrative regulations. When you apply for documents and go through exit checks, staff will also remind you and, where necessary, advise you not to go. Looking over that page before you leave takes a few minutes.
