How to Obtain a Chinese Business Visa

If traveling to China for business meetings, sales presentations or other business related activities, you'll need a Chinese business visa. Fortunately we handle hundreds of business visas every week, and we are experts at making the process as simple as possible.

Business Visa for China Overview

It is important to understand that Chinese business visas are intended for those who are visiting companies in China as part or normal business meetings.

Business Meetings in China

They are not intended to replace the necessity for a Chinese work visa if you will be directly employed or performing technical work or training. In order to obtain a China business visa, you must provide, among other requirements, a letter of invitation from the host company in China detailing who you are visiting and what type of business will transpire. A similar letter from your employer in the US is required as well.

Important Issues with China Tourist Visa

In this video we go over the common mistakes with China Tourist Visas

1.1  Passport

• Submit your current, signed passport. Visas are stamped directly into the passport, so the original is required.

1.2  Photo Requirement

Submit two (2) identical, color, passport-style photographs. The photos must be recent and generally should not be the same as those used for the passport itself.

Photo Criteria:

• Plain white background
• Printed on photo paper
• No glasses or jewelry
• Neutral expression

1.3  Proof of Residency

• Provide a legible, color copy of the front AND back of your driver's license or state-issued ID. No other forms of residency proof are accepted.

1.4  Travel to Turkey or Pakistan

• If you have ever visited Turkey or Pakistan, complete and provide the affidavit below.

1.5  Previous Chinese Visa Holders

• Submit previous Chinese visas. If they are in an old passport, include that passport or provide a letter explaining its absence (e.g., lost, stolen, damaged).

1.6  Applicants Under 18yrs

• Applications for minors are treated individually. Additional requirements apply.

1.7  Former Chinese Nationals

• Submit your previous Chinese passport or proof of a previously issued Chinese visa. Former Hong Kong citizens must provide an original previous Chinese visa or appear in person at the nearest Chinese Embassy or Consulate.
