Visa Information
To enter China, a visa is required for most visitors. Applying for a tourist visa is pretty simple and takes from 48 hours (express service) to 15 days. Cost of a tourist visa varies greatly between countries, and so does the length of the visa (from 30 days to 3 months).
Learning2 and SAS are unable to assist with Visa Applications. Participants should apply for a Tourist visa through their local Chinese Embassy usually by providing:
- Valid passport (The Chinese authorities require a valid passport with an expiration date over 6 months past the departure date from China)
- Return Airline Ticket
- Hotel Reservation
Important: Chinese embassies and consulates close during the National Holiday between the 1st and 6th of October, so plan your visa request accordingly.
