  Asked by Mr. Ariel(Argentina)
I am argentinian and I would like to go to Shanghai. My real intention is a market survey because I would like to start a business there. What kind of visa I need to apply? tourist? business? May I have a six months multi entry? What are the requirements to get it? Thank you for your help

 Answered by Mr. Frank
You need to apply for a tourist L. If this is your first-time application, the consular officers may not grant you a multiple-entry. Generally, you only need to provide your passport that must be with over 6 months validity and more than two blank pages left, a truly filled Chinese application form, a passport standard photo taken recently, round-way air ticket and hotel booking for the application.
