Questions & Answers on China Embassy in Bahamas

Asked by Maureen Catalano from THE BAHAMAS | Feb. 14, 2020 07:52

Short-term Work Permit

Dear Sirs: We have a client that needs to send an employee to Nassau for a short-term assignment. She holds a passport from China but resides in the US on a work visa. She also needs to renew her visa stamp at a US consulate as she has the renewal approval but the stamp can only be issued at a US consulate abroad. Because she cannot travel to China due to the outbreak, the company would like her to get her visa stamped in Nassau while on short-term assign assignment. Is this possible?
