I am a US citizen currently teaching English in Seoul. I would like to travel to China on a vacation. How can I obtain a travel visa to China from Seoul?

Mrs.McSweeny(US) said:

My husband and I are planning to travel to China. Should we apply visa separately? And what is the address of the consular office in Gangwando?

Thanks!

Each of you should apply for a visa. You should go to the Chinese consulate that includes Gangwando in the consular districts. Check out the consular disctricts on the webpage above.

Ms.Anne(China) said:

I am currently in China. They use SIM cards in their phone. I'm traveling to Korea next week and am wondering if it is possible to use my Chinese phone number/SIM card in Korea. I need to be able to keep the number the same and have it work in Korea. Is this possible?

Mr.John replied:

You can use the SIM card in Korea. China Mobile Network covers a wide range of areas in the world. When you used the SIM card in Korea ( to make calls), the fees are very high.

Ms.Anne(China) replied:

Thank you very much. So you think that any Chinese SIM card can be used there?

Jun. 23,2009 02:15
Mr.John replied:

Yes, but you have to make sure that GSM service of your SIM card is open.

Mr.Kenneth Smalls(USA) said:

The information on your consulate website appears to be outdated. I traveled to Shanghai earlier this year and had to use a service to get a visa. Am I allowed to now come to the consulate to apply directly for a visa. Also, can I obtain a multi-entry visa?

Mr.Kenneth Smalls, thank you very much. You are right!
From September 1st, 2007, the Consular Section of the Embassy of China to the Republic of Korea (ROK) will no longer accept foreigners’ individual applications for Chinese visas(visas to China’s Hong Kong are not included). applicants need apply through travel agencies designated by the Consular Section of the Chinese Embassy.
