Hi, I have a Thai work permit. I am a UK citizen, is it possible for me to apply for a Chinese (Z) work permit here in Bangkok, Thailand?
If so, what requirements/documents would I need?
Thank you.
Jun. 30,2009 22:06
Mr.Timothy replied:
In priciple, you have to apply for your China work visa in your home country. But you may have a try in
Thailand.
The required documents are:
a The original passport with a validity more than six months and enough blank visa pages;
b One copy of completed visa application form in Chinese or English (two copies for US citizens), attached with one of the applicant's recent colorful front pictures of upper body (30mm X 40mm)
c. A visa notice or cable from an authorized Chinese organization and "Employment Permit for Foreigners in the People's Republic of China" issued by the Labor Ministry.

Mr.Djulz(France) said:
Dear Sir,
I would like to apply for a single entry one month visa for tourism. I have all the required documents but I still have two simple questions but very important for my application:
1/ Can somebody else apply and collect my passeport for me ? Should I write a letter or something else ?
2/ I have two left pages in my passport (which is ok for the requirement), but one is left in the middle and one is at the very end of the passport. Would it be a problem if these two pages are not consecutive ?
Thank you.
Jun. 30,2009 21:59
Mr.Tiffany replied:
1 you can go to apply for and pick up the visa in person, or you can also entrust a freind or a trave/visa agent to do that for you.
2 The important thing about your visa is it must be with at least 6 months validity, it may not matter too much that the two blank pages are not consecutive.

Hello I am a French citizen in Bangkok, I would like to apply for a tourist visa on monday (29th of June) with a one day processing time.
Do I need to provide a flight ticket to China? Will I get the visa on 30th of June for sure?
Jun. 27,2009 04:34
Mr.Oscar replied:
Yes, your air ticket to China is necessary when applying for the visa. If you submit your application on June 29 and use rush service, you can get the visa on June 30.
Jun. 27,2009 05:16
Mr.Cyrille(French) replied:
thank you very much!
I will most likely buy the flight on the internet. Is a printed copy of the confirmation from the airline enough?
Jun. 28,2009 00:40
Mr.Oscar replied:
The fax version of the confirmation will be okay for your application.
Jun. 28,2009 23:19
Mr.Cyrille(France) replied:
I'm a bit confused, do I also need "Traveler's Check or the Bank Deposit Certificate" ?
Thank you!
Jun. 29,2009 01:19
Mr.Lucifer(Hong Kong) replied:
Either Traveler's check or the Bank Deposit Certificate is fine since either of them can function as your financial proof.
Jun. 29,2009 02:15
Mr.Cyrille(France) replied:
oh and I have just seen that Bangkok embassy did not deliver visas to French citizen a few months ago, is it still true?
I tried to contact them without success :(

Mr.Lucifer(Hongkong) replied:
I haven't heard of that, the embassy didn't give that notice. Try to contact the embassy agian, hereunder is the phone nuber of the embassy for your reference.

Mr.Hugh replied:
Generally, if you don't have the air tickets, there are problems for you to get Chinese visa. You may provide your detailed travel itinerary (stating the detailed means of transportation during your trip). The visa officers may grant you a visa.
