Chinese Visas 3 questions

Drivers licence number

Luckily, you don’t have to apply for a Chinese Visa again. The Chinese government allows you to travel carrying both passports: a current valid US passport without a visa and an expired passport with the valid ten­-year Chinese visa. If you lose your passport, however, you will have to apply for a visa again.

If the main purpose of your visit/trip is business, trade affairs, or commercial discussions then you must apply for a business visa to China. However, you are allowed to tour the country with a business visa. You do not need a separate Chinese tourist visa to see China’s cultural heritage.

In addition to all required paperwork, you should request a business invite from the inviting company in China.

This is to have your photo and fingerprints taken (known as ‘biometric information’). When you visit the ASC for your biometrics appointment, please take your current passport, a print out of your application form and a copy of your biometric confirmation receipt.
