Mr. Fola(Nigeria) said:
Hello,
A Chinese friend of mine is getting married in China in December & he has written an original invitation letter. I have other documents (passport, bank statement, letter from my employer). Is there anything else I require? Secondly, as the major reason for my visit is his wedding (plan to spend only 5 days),what should I fill in section 2 of the application form ie major purpose of visit. Should I tick other and write friend's wedding in bracket or should I tick tourism and also tick other specifying friend's wedding in bracket. Lastly, most I make a flight reservation before I apply for the visa. I look forward to your reply. Thanks.
Nov. 15,2009 23:06
Mr.Jeff replied:
I think you can tick other specifying friend's wedding in bracket on the Section 2 of the Visa Application Form, besides your original passport, the copy of the first three pages of your passport, one completed visa application form attached with one recent passport photo, two-way air ticket are also required.

Mr.Peter replied:
You have to apply for a visa to China, but according to your statement, you can't apply for Business visa although you come to China for business, the Tourist Visa is relatively easy to apply for, I advice that you contact a qualified visa agency to join a group. The visa gency will help you to get a visa.

You can try to apply for a China visa again from the China Embassy. If you can get the visa, then you can go to China.

You made a mistake to used the fake resident permite to obtain the visa at chinese embassy! my advice to you is that ,you should try to do your business in another country like Europe or American.

No one here can give you exact answer to whether your visa would be refused or not, for we are travellers not the China Embassy in Nigeria.
