Visa Issues
Visa-free entry for visitors: No visa is required
for ordinary passport holders from Singapore, Brunei and
Japan to visit China for up to 15 days for business, sightseeing,
visiting relatives and friends or transit.
Most
international visitors are required to obtain tourist (L
visas) or business visas (F visas) to travel to China. The
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic
of China maintains a worldwide
index of embassies. Some countries have introduced Chinese
Visa Application Service Centers; in some countries specialized
agencies offer rapid hassle-free services to expedite your
Chinese visa needs.
