# List of Chinese cultural relics forbidden to be exhibited abroad

The list of Chinese cultural relics forbidden to be exhibited abroad (Chinese:禁止出境展览文物;pinyin:Jìnzhǐ Chūjìng Zhǎnlǎn Wénwù) comprises a list of antiquities and archaeological artifacts held by various museums and other institutions in the People's Republic of China, which the Chinese government has officially prohibited, since 2003, from being taken abroad for exhibition. Many of the relics on the list symbolize the breakthrough of archaeological discoveries that were made in China since the mid-20th century, when archaeology as a modern science began to take root in China. These items are among the most important excavated treasures in China, and have a particular historical, cultural or artistic significance.
The list was first announced in January 2002, with a second batch of items added to the list in June 2012, and a third batch added the next year in July 2013.

## Government regulations prohibiting exhibition abroad

According to Article 49 of the Regulations for the Implementation of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Protection of Cultural Relics (State Council Decree No. 377) promulgated on 18 May 2003:
   The only existing or fragile relics among the grade-one relics are prohibited from being taken out of the country for exhibition. The catalogue of cultural relics prohibited from being taken out of the country for exhibition shall be made public on a regular basis by the competent cultural relics administrative department of the State Council.
A first list of sixty-four cultural relics that are forbidden to be exhibited abroad was published by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage on 19 January 2002 (a year before the above regulation was enacted).
In addition to the list of items explicitly prohibited from being exhibited abroad, cultural relics that fall within one of the following five categories are also prohibited from being exhibited outside of China:
* ancient human remains
* the main object of reverence at a place of religious observation
* first-grade cultural relics that are unique and easily damaged
* objects listed in the catalogue of cultural relics that are prohibited from being exhibited abroad
* cultural relics that are not suitable to be exhibited abroad because of their state of preservation
Furthermore, cultural relics may not be sent abroad for exhibition if they have not previously been officially exhibited within China.
