Important information about the Chinese business visa
Please Note: In 2019, the Chinese Consular Office introduced
a mandatory fingerprinting requirement for Chinese visa applications. Our colleagues will meet you at the
Chinese institution, help you clear all the formalities and organizational issues on the spot, and also
provide assistance with the fingerprinting procedure.
At the same time, if you already have a biometric visa to China (it is easy to identify it by your photo
on it - old-style visas to China were issued without photos), then within five years from the date of receipt
of the first biometric visa to China - you do not have to take new fingerprints. Also, children under fourteen
do not need to be fingerprinted to obtain a Chinese visa, this rule also applies to people over 71 years of age.
Important! A regular entry business visa to China is issued for
business purposes in China for a period of up to one year. At the same time, the time of continuous stay
under this business visa to China will be limited to 30, 60, 90, 180 days.
A business visa to China is valid for the time specified in the invitation and can be single or multiple
entry and is valid from the moment of issue.
Please, wait...
