The
move is part of the U.S.-based streaming pioneer's global
expansion plans. By the end of 2016, Netflix plans to reach 200
countries, including China, where it said it was "continuing to
explore options."
The streaming service will be available at launch on smart TVs,
tablets, smartphones, computers and a range of Internet-capable
game consoles and set-top boxes, Netflix said.
Earlier this month, Netflix started its service in Japan, the
first Asian country to welcome the maker of "House of Cards" and
"Orange is the New Black".
Details on pricing, programs and supported devices will be known
at a later date, the company added.
