You need to apply for a L visa one month prior to your trip to China. The L visa usually allows 15 days or 30 days stay.

Chinese visa

Hello I am going to China for a visit possible permanent residency.I live in New Brunswick.No prior.Clean record.Been driving truck 26 years in U.S Canada.Where and what do I need to do.? Thanks

Answered by Rita | May. 13, 2024 20:23

You want to apply for China permanent residency? Well, as I know it's pretty hard to get one. You need to work in China (with a high position) for at least three years and pay taxes, and make 3-year good investment in China, or you have made great contribution to China. And you need to apply it at China government above city level.

Visa-Information

Hi,

I went to China more than 20 years ago, but I didn't keep any of the information ( visa number etc.) . I'm about to apply for a tourist visa and they ask for all those information. What should I do ?

Answered by Eric | Mar. 11, 2024 02:03

If you cannot provide the info of the old one, I'm afraid you can only apply for the new one as it is the first-time application. Sorry for that:(
