I have a valid US Passport with expiration Date 06 April 2031.
I have a valid China Visa with expiration 05 April 2027, but the stamp label for the valid Visa was
added to my old passport before it expired 19 June 2021.
Can I bring both passports and get into China? I will only be in China 2 or 3 days.
