how can i use a visa that is in my passport which will expire before the visa?

Question

I have a valid 10-year Chinese visa which allows me multiple trips to China for business.  My Visa is good until January 2026.  My passport expires in less than 6 months, so I need to renew it before traveling to China.  Can I use my current Visa with a new passport?  Can I transfer the remaining time on my visa to my new passport?

You need to take both the old and new passport to enter China. As for the visa transferring to the new passport, you need to contact the China Embassy in your country; but it's really not necessary to transfer for it; just a matter of bringing one more passport.
