Visa Information

Recommendations
If you need a visa to enter China, please apply for one as early as possible. To avoid frustration and disappointment:

  • Advance planning by travelers is essential. Review your visa status and find out if you need a Chinese visa or a visa renewal.
  • Plan to submit your visa application well in advance of your intended departure date. Contact your nearest Chinese embassy or consulate for a current time estimate and recommendations.
  • Visit the embassy or consular section where you plan to apply for your visa. Visit their website to find important information on how to schedule an interview appointment and pay fees.
