Mr.Berd(Singapore) said:
Hi,
I decided to make a last minute holiday to china.
I am a thai national working in singapore.
Is it possible to apply for a visa on Monday and get the visa approved on the SAME day? So that i can buy a ticket departing singapore on tuesday?
Secondly, for the confirmation of the hotel booking, what if the hotel booking is not made under my name?
Thank you

Mrs.Elizabeth replied:
China Embassy in Singapore do provide same dayu visa application service.
However, I think you have to buy the qir tickets first which is necessary for your China visa application. If you will apply for the visa for yourself, the hotel booking should be made under your own name.

Hello,
I'm travelling to Shanghai in December with a school student group. As the airline tickets and accomodation bookings have been done through an external organisation (YMCA), I do not have these confirmation documents. Will i be able to apply for the visa by merely giving the details of our flight and accomodation, and not provide these documents? I'm a Singapore citizen.
Also, are the visa application hours are really only from 9 - 1130 am on weekdays?
Thanks.
Nov. 18,2009 20:21
Mr.Albert replied:
I thiink you should ask the external organisation (YMCA)to provide you a proof of your hotel and air ticket boookings for your visa application.

Im holding Philippine passport and staying here in Singapore on Employment Pass, I want to go China for a holiday this December on tour package, but the China Embassy give 6 months for my visa to process, Why so long?
Nov. 18,2009 04:36
Mr.Paul replied:
Really, It's said that it only takes 4 working days for the China Embassy to issue a visa.
I don't think it is true, you know a single China tourist visa is only 3 months valid.

I am a foreign student, holding Cambodian passport and a Student Pass in Singapore. My bf's parents have invited me to visit China in February next year (less than 14 days) and i will be staying over my bf's house. He is now currently staying in Singapore with me here, also holding a Student Pass.
I wonder if i can ask his parents to write me an invitation letter as a proof of residential location instead of the hotel reservation? or is it a must to have the hotel reservation under this any condition? And lastly, can i just apply the Chinese Visa in Singapore?
Best Regards

Mr.Helper(Canada) replied:
You can ask your Bf's parents to provide you an invitation letter instead of the hotel booking. You may apply for the China vis ain Singapore, since you should have a Singaporean residence permit as a student there.
