My visa will expire soon, but I still want to stay in China, what should I do?

China Visa Sample

 Answer: It is advised to apply for a visa extension with ample time to spare before your current visa expires. Overstaying your visa's duration may be considered an illegal residence and could lead to a fine, imprisonment or deportation. However, in exceptional circumstances, one should apply for visa extension in advance of the visa's expiration date. To extend your Visa in China, you need appropriate reasons and relevant documents, please read Visa Extension for all the details.
