Ms.DINOSAUR_BRAIN(Singapore) said:
Hi,
My thai boyfriend is planning to visit me for a week in china in a couple of days.
1) Apart from the passport, photo, application form, does he also need to provide evidence of his round-trip ticket?
We would rather settle the visa permit first before buying the ticket in case anything crops up. Any advice?
2) The visas can be processed in a day for 2300 Baht?
3) Can he apply for the permit in the consulate general in Songkla? Or must he go to bangkok?
4) What are some of the reasons that they would deny a thai citizen a holiday visa?
Thank you very much and looking forward to a favorable reply ! :)

Mr.Joseph replied:
1. round-way air ticket is necessary for China tourist visa application.
2. If he request the rush service, the visa can be got in the same day for THB 2,200.
3. He can apply for the visa from the Consulate General of China in Songkhla.
4. The China Embassy has the right to reject any visa application without giving any reason, so it may be the problem of his application documents if his application was refused.

Dear Sirs,
I would like to ask about Visa to Mainland China.
I am flying to Thailand from China to visit Thailand, and wish to return to China, but my current "L" visa will be expired while I am staying in Thailand (before this I have several "F" visas).
As an American citizen, can I get a tourist visa for mainland China in Thailand for up to 6 months or 1 year? How much does it cost and what documents I should apply ? Thank you.

If you go to Shanghai for tourism, you should apply for tourist visa and prepare the following documents:
1. Your valid actual passport.
2. One completed Visa Application Form with one additional passport photo (black & white or color is acceptable).
3. the two-way flight ticket, hotel booking confirmation or itinerary

The fee is 2,300 Bahts in total for single entry tourist visa and you pick it up on the same day.

Mrs.Alyssa replied:
Sir, you mistook this website for the official website of the China Embassy in Thailand.
Nov. 11,2009 04:16
Mr.Dean(MK) replied:
I'm sorry but it seems to me many people use this site for similar questions and I thought is provided for that?
I'm a bit confused now that some people have got answers and some have to refer to the official site of the chinese Emb in BKK?
Nov. 11,2009 20:36
Mrs.Abbott replied:
I think many people posted similar questions is because they met similar problems when applying for China visa.
Some travellers' question is simple, so other travellers just provide them exact answers, but some travellers' questions seem to be complex, other travellers just offered the embassy's official website or contacts within their grasp.
