Hi
My mother, a senior, is travelling to Kuala Lumpur via HK where she will stay for one hour in the airport to change flights. She is a permanent resident in Canada and carries a valid Iraqi passport. Does she need a tranit visa? and how log does it take to issue the visa because she already bought a ticket for 22 November.
Oct. 29,2009 21:03
Mr.Duke replied:
Iraqi passport holders are required to hold a valid visa for the HKSAR for whatever purpose, including those who are in transit and remain on the airside.
If you apply for the visa from a China embassy or consulate, it takes 4 working days; if you apply from the Immigration Office of Hk directly, it takes 2 weeks.

I got Chinese L visa for stay 30 days (my mistake put 30 days at first place), but didn't know how the days worked out. If I arrive China July, 9 2009 at 5:00pm and depart China August, 8 2009 at 10:00am, can is count as 30 days? (Or 31 days?)
Jun. 28,2009 23:01
Mr.Hebert(USA) replied:
That could be counted as 31 days. Well, the policy wouldn't that strict. You can also extend the duration of stay at a local public security bureau within Mainland China. Usually, they will give you an extension of 7 days for you to pack up.
