I got a 12-month multiple entry visa last time, with 30-day maximum stay. It is great, but it's a nuisance having to go to Hong Kong every 30 days. Is it possible to get a 90-day 12-month multiple entry visa?

Mr.Benson replied:
I don't think it is possible.

Judging from the lack of phone service to the Embassy, I need a little advice about Visas to China. My husband is currently working there and we (my two sons and I) will be joining him in early December. We will be living there as well and I was wanting to know what type of visa would I need and what docs would be required to support our application. Do I have to provide our travel itinerary? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Help! The chinese embassy has my passport and nobody will answer the phone to let me know if I will get it back in time for my holiday! It's already been 10 days :(

Ms.Vivian(Australia) replied:
I'm afriad that it is better for you to send a fax to the embassy to enquire the visa processing, As I know, the phone of the embassy is hard to get through and most phones are answer-phone.

Please if someone can advise me what to do..My husband went to the chinese consulate and filled the application and provided a copy of my baby's travel pass (expires in two month time) and they refused to accept the application. firstly, they said Saudi don't need a visa. then my husband explained that she doesn't have a passport and someone at the airport advised us to apply for visa. after that, they checked her travel pass and said that she can be granted a visa cause her travel pass ends on the 10 Jan 2010!! and their visa is at least for 3 months!!
We need only for the 29 hour stay in Hong Kong..please any advise what to do next??

Photocopy of the applicant's travel document containing personal particulars, date of issue, date of expiry and/or details of any re-entry visa held (if applicable) is Ok for Hong Kong visa application, please submit visa application to the Chinese embassy or consulate as soon as possible.
