Passport and Visa
A valid passport is required to enter China. China does not allow entrance if the holder’s passport expires in less than six months; returning home with an expired passport is against the law, and may result in a fine.
The passport will contain the following personal information: Passport number, Surname, Fire name(s), Date of birth, Place of birth, Gender, Validity, Photograph, Signature. The personal information, photograph and signature are all on a certain page of the passport. The page is in two parts. The lower part has two lines of print which can be read by special passport reading equipment. All the information on the page can also be read by the human eye. There is no hidden information and there will be no way of adding information to the page after the passport has been issued.
Passport are also needed as it will be the most important means of identification. You will have to show them when you cash traveler’s checks, make plane or train reservations, exchange money or find out the holder’s identity.
There must be at least one totally blank page in the passport to be used as a visa page. Single or double entry visa requires a passport valid for at least 6 months. For multiple entry visas, a passport should be valid for at least 9 months.
Traveling in China requires a tourism visa (L). L visa is divided into two kinds: group visa and individual visa. If you are a part of a group, the tour operator will often help to get it. Group visas will usually be issued for groups with at least 5 members, and the guide of your group will keep the visas.
An individual traveler can apply for one at any Chinese embassy or consulates, and the procedure is usually simple.
Foreigners who want to stay in China longer than what their current visa allows need to apply for an extension to their visa with proper reasons.
The extension application should be made at the public security bureau seven days before the visa expires. Multiple entry visas cannot be extended.
