The Bureau of International Exchange and Cooperation, also known as the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Affairs Office, is a department within China’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism (文化和旅遊部). The Ministry of Culture and Tourism was established in April 2018 through government restructuring that merged the former Ministry of Culture and National Tourism Administration. Headquartered at 10 Chaoyangmen North Street in Beijing’s Dongcheng District, the bureau oversees cultural and tourism exchanges with foreign countries, Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan. The bureau maintains 19 internal divisions including regional offices, multilateral affairs, overseas institutions, and protocol services. Current leadership includes Director Gao Zheng (高政), Party Secretary and First-Level Inspector Xu Rong (許蓉), First-Level Inspectors Zheng Hao (鄭浩), and Deputy Directors Liu Quan (劉全), Shi Zeyi (石澤毅), and Kong Lun (孔倫). The bureau manages China’s overseas cultural institutions and coordinates international cultural agreements and major exchange activities.
