Many thanks

Your wife can obtain a Ukraine visa at the Embassy of Ukraine in Beijing. As of May 15, the Ukraine immigration administration requires Chinese visitors to Ukraine to prepare a financial proof proving that they can cover the expense during the whole trip. The proof would be checked at any time in Ukraine. For requirements about Ukraine visa, check the embassy' site; http://www.ukremb.cn/eng/about/

Hi, I am a US citizen, residing in Ukraine. I would like to arrange a one year, multi-entry visa for China for travel beginning July 3rd, 2009. I am a previous, multi-entry visa holder (2006). Can I arrange this by my target date at the embassy, and do I need any additional documents (invite letter or other?)? Thanks. Chris
Jun. 19,2009 22:53 Mrs.Pearl(USA) replied:
Yes, you may need a invitation letter from the authorized Chinese unit. Meanwhile, you need to submit an acutual proof of apply the multi-entry visa. For details, you need to contact the Chinese embassy in Ukrine.

Jun. 14,2009 21:52 Mr.Brown replied:
For family visit, hotel reservation is not needed for application because she may live in your residence. Well, if your mom will live in a hotel, then she should provide the proof of confirmed hotel booking. You should send your mom an invitation letter with your contact details written on it. You can log on to the embassy's official site for detailed visa information. http://ua.chineseembassy.org/rus/
Jun. 16,2009 11:55 Mr.ivanka(china) replied:
thank you so much.. but i couldnt find the application form. there is no form,nothing there. I think that page was broken.
I've sent her invitation already,so does it need to write in the letter my home adress? or does she need a document from the police station about my living place?i hope if i send it by fax wont have any problem?
Jun. 16,2009 22:23 Mr.Dickey replied:
I can find the visa application form on the website, I don't know why you can't. Try again.!
You have to write your valid address and contacts in China in the invitation letter, and the letter written by you and sent by fax is ok.

For L visa Application, medical certificate is not required. I'm afraid your mother have to go to the Chinese embassy for her application in person , or she could entrust a relative, a travel/visa agent to apply the visa for her.
