Hi
I just read from the following website that one of the document required for Visa Application is round trip airline ticket and hotel reservation.
http://www.chinaembassy.org.sg/eng/lsqw/qz/t585199.htm
Is this a must?
Also, is collection of the visa by post, or self collect?
Nov. 6,2009 01:17
Mr.Fitzgerald replied:
The round-way air ticket and hotel booking are necesary for Chian visa application.
you have to apply for and collect the visa in person or entrust a friend or travel agency.

its my first time to china with my family. we are going to shanghai and travel up to beijing via train. As such, i wonder whether we need any visas? Myself and husband are of the age of 30s and 40s, my sons at 10 and my daughter at 13years old. My sons, as they are boys, their passport expire on july 2010. Do we need to renew before the travel? our travel date is between 9 to 23 dec 2009. kindly advice. thank you.
Nov. 5,2009 19:50
Mr.Dick replied:
Singaporean passport holders are exempt from visa to China for 15 days, so you don't need any visa.
Meanwhile, you don't need to renew your son's passports, their passports are still over 6 months valid when you travel.

Mr.Joe(Singapore) replied:
Hi Ms Emily I think I'm on the same trip as you, but I'll be applying for my visa in Msia since from what I've read, can apply in Malaysia too at a cheaper fee (RM 30), and they don't need to retain your passport... so can just get a relative to help pickup the visa once it's processed...

Ms.Emily(Singapore) replied:
Good morning Mr Robert, thanks for your quick reply.
Nov. 5,2009 08:11
Mr.Joe(Singapore) replied:
Hi Emily, not sure if you received my last post, was just checking back and don't seem to see it here... strange... anyways i went to the malaysian china embassy last friday, but sad to say they still need to retain your passport for processing of the visa. I opted for the same day express service (RM 140) since I was already there... anyways a friend who visited china recently mentioned that you can also just pass your passport to any travel agency here, just need to pay SGD 30 extra in most cases... hope this helps =)

If you can provide all requirements for visa, it is possible for you to get a visa in Singapore. But the certainty is not 100%. Sometimes, your visa application will be refused for no reason.

Hi,I'm Malaysian and would like to apply a single entry visa within one day. Below are my question:
- Based on the info i see here,the total expense is SGD 100 (50 for the application fees and 50 for the expedition). Is there any other fees need to be pay?
- If i come apply in the morning,would i be able to get the visa by evening (if i paid for the expedited fees)?
- Can i apply the visa on behalf of my girlfriend or she need to be there personally to sign any document?
- Lastly,does the embassy phone number here still working?Because i have tried to call several times on my query but nobody was answering the phone.
Hope to hear from you soon,thanks.

Mr.Ethan replied:
1. I think there isn't any other fees, but you'd better take some extra money in case of emergency.
2. You may be able to get the visa in the afternoon.
3. I checked the tel number with that on the embassy's official website, they are the same.
