I am currently unemployed and just meeting friends in China for a 2 week backpacking trip (no fixed places to stay at, will just be buying train tickets and hopping from city to city). Is it likely I will get a visa as a Canadian citizen or might they deny me because I don't know many details about the trip except for when I will arrive and depart? I also don't have any contact information for anyone in China.
Nov. 6,2009 20:35
Mrs.Amanda replied:
If you don't have fixed itinerary and fixed destination. I think it's impossible for you to apply for a visa.

Mr.abc(macau) replied:

Hello, We are going on a cruise which starts in Singapore December 2, 2009 and ends in Bangkok on January 3, 2010. The only time that we will be in China is for 12 hours in transit through Shanghai. Is a Tourist Visa required even if we do not get off the ship at the docks in Shanghai? Thank you for your help. Don.
