EXPLANATORY NOTE
Tuniu Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 20-F/A (this “Amendment No. 1”) to amend its annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 27, 2023 (the “Original Filing”), to address certain comments from the Staff of the SEC in relation to the Original Filing. Accordingly, the Company is amending the following sections of the Original Filing: (i) “Part II – Item 16I. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections” and (ii) “Part III – Item 19. Exhibits” in this Amendment No. 1, which are replaced in their entirety with the following sections included in this Amendment No.1.
This Amendment No. 1 speaks as of the filing date of the Original Filing, or April 27, 2023. No attempt has been made in this Amendment No. 1 to modify or update in any way the financial statements or any other items or disclosures in the Original Filing. Except as specifically noted herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not amend, update or restate any of the information previously included in the Original Filing, nor does this Amendment No. 1 reflect any event that has occurred after the date of the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and the Company’s other filings with the SEC subsequent to April 27, 2023.
As required by Rule 12b-15 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company is also filing or furnishing the certifications required under Section 302 and Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as exhibits to this Amendment No. 1.

PART II
Item 16I. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections
In May 2022, Tuniu Corporation was conclusively listed by the SEC as a Commission-Identified Issuer under the HFCAA following the filing of our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Our auditor, a registered public accounting firm that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely in 2021 because of a position taken by an authority in the foreign jurisdiction, issued the audit report for us for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB removed mainland China and Hong Kong from the list of jurisdictions where it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms. For this reason, we do not expect to be identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer under the HFCAA after we file this annual report.
As of the date of this annual report, to our knowledge, (i) no governmental entities in the Cayman Islands or in China own shares of Tuniu Corporation or the VIE or the subsidiaries of the VIE, (ii) the governmental entities in China do not have a controlling financial interest in Tuniu Corporation or the VIE or the subsidiaries of the VIE, (iii) none of the members of the board of directors of Tuniu Corporation or our operating entities, including the VIE, is an official of the Chinese Communist Party, and (iv) none of the currently effective memorandum and articles of association (or equivalent organizing document) of Tuniu Corporation or our operating entities, including the VIE, contains any charter of the Chinese Communist Party.
