I honestly didn't have anyone question me. Also, I scratched out the date on my app and still got my visa within two days. Also the consulate never asked for hotels, flights or anything. It was pretty simple, easy and hassle free.

Very informative video, i used to live in Beijing and have traveled there many times after, the visa application process in Norway is a bit worse than most other countries because of a nobel price that was given to a chinese citizen which the government of china wasn't too happy about. But Beijing is at least my favorite city to visit in the world, it has everything, people are great, i have never encountered any problems there, no scams, no nothing (well, except for some beggers in Sanlitun, but i never really go there). Also being from norway, its so cheap i can live there for 6 months on one months salary :)

Great vid, very helpful and clear. I'm trying to go in the spring for a month. Can one get the visa if you book the hotel for only a night or two? Or do you have to book for the entire month? I'd much rather use the chinese equivalent of airbnb but I don't want to get into trouble or have the visa denied, and wanna know how serious the notion of designaged location is to them.

you can book all those things via some websites such as "booking" or "agoda" then after you get your visa, you can cancel your bookings for free, for flight, you can go to a travel agency and print out a flight booking confirmation form (not sure what that's called, but go ask them, they know it), you don't need to actually pay for the tickets.

@woltersworld8 жыл бұрын
The visa requirements depend on the country of your passport. So if you have a German passport and a US green card you still have to get a visa that germans would have to get. Also if you live in the US but have a different passport you will need to send proof that you can live in the US. I would call the consulate of the country you are going to and ask specifically what you should do as you would be a special case.

The application has bunch of retarded questions, they want your parents names, asking what they do for a living, where do you work or go to school, what's your education status... Bunch of stupid questions... Too many questions and requirements just to go there for a vacation. Also like the guy said, they want photo copy of your passport, printed paper work showing your flights and hotels your staying at.... Bring passports pictures and credit card. They don't take cash and it costs $140 for the Visa...
