Visa Application

Visa Application

Conference participants who bear a foreign passport may need to apply for a Chinese visa to visit China, except those passport holders from Singapore, Brunei and Japan. Participants can apply for a visa at the Chinese embassy or consulate in the region where they live. To avoid any uncertainty, participants are advised to apply for the visa as early as possible, at least one month prior to the conference date.

For most attendees, it is easier to apply for a Tourist ("L") visa, for which no invitation letter is required for the application.

* For more information, please contact the local Chinese Embassy in your country.
