Asked by Mr. Parth Jain(Sweden)
Hi, I have got admission into the LSE-PKU SUmmer School, Beijing which is for 14 days... SO i apply for a student visa or can i study for that time period in a tourist visa? Also i would be visiting Shanghai and some other cities. What do i do?

Answered by Ms. Lydia
Mr. Parth Jain, you should apply for F visa which is also issued to aliens coming to China for studying for not more than 6 months. Holding F visa, you can visit Shanghai and some other cities. It’s illegal to study in China with a tourist visa.

Asked by Mrs. Red(Sweden)
My family are thinking of going to Beijing for my husbands' business trip. We all plan to be there for 3 months. Can we all get a tourist visa that can give us a 90 days duration? Does the children and baby have to all pay for the visa individually too?

Answered by Ms. Celina
Mrs. Red, you can write 90 days duration of stay on the visa application form. It is subject to the decision of consular officials. If you can't get a 90 days stay duration, you can apply for extension after arriving in China. The children and baby should pay for the visa individually.
