Tips To Get A Business Visa

By Kelli Townsend


Visas are legal documents that give permission for a foreigner or alien to enter or leave a specific country or territory. Although a person may already have it, the immigration officers still have the authority to allow every individual to come and leave their place upon arrival time. There are nations that do not need such. But to get a China business visa is different. The said country is a great spot for starting commerce thus many wants to acquire such.

Business visa belongs to the category of short stay which means that a person is only allowed to have short visits in the host country. This is given to individuals who want to engage commerce in the said country. Also, it can be given to foreign citizens who asked to go to China to conduct research and surveys in the fields of technology, science, sport and education. This is only valid for a certain period that will not exceed the duration of six months.

Application for such will take for about more than a week. To be able to finish everything ahead of time, make sure that you prepare the right travel documents. For those people who are in a rush, they could have your application processed quickly but they require an additional pay.

To fill up the application form is the first step in applying for a visa. This can be taken from any Chinese Embassy. See to it that the information that you are writing are accurate and precise and choose the right type you are applying for. China sorts out all business visas under type F. A recent 2x2 passport photo, a copy of your flight details and your hotel accommodation must also be included in the documents to be submitted. It is also required to provide an invitation letter that comes from the company that is inviting you.

It would cost a lot for you to complete the entire process. But one could actually have their fees paid in any modes of payment they are comfortable with. Transaction can be done through cash, company checks or even credit cards. Processing fees differ in many cases. It could vary depending on the nationality of the applicant and whether the application will be rushed or not.

All applications are submitted personally. Those that are mailed are rejected easily. If you already prepared everything, bring the documents to a Chinese Consulate. Travel agencies can also do it for you in case you cannot make it.

Once submitted, all you have to do is wait for a response. It is recommended to apply one month before departure date to avoid postponements. Their policies may change at any time. One should always be ready for any situation and have everything done beforehand.

Any person who is suffering from any diseases such as tuberculosis, AIDS, leprosy and other mental disorders are not allowed to enter the territories of China. This is to avoid any infectious disease from spreading all throughout their territories. All countries even have such policy to ensure safety of their citizens.

A China business visa may expire. The duration of a type F is only good for thirty days which means a foreigner could stay in the said country for thirty days upon the date of entry. Failure to abide such will lead to some penalties and fines.
