Important Application Notes
- Most applicants submit via the Chinese visa centre workflow rather than direct embassy filing.
- Single- and double-entry applications may be temporarily exempt from fingerprint submission depending on current regulation and visa category.
- Multiple-entry applications generally still require biometric submission for applicants aged 14-69.
- Processing time starts once your file is complete and accepted by the visa centre. If biometrics are required, the selected processing speed starts from your fingerprint appointment date.
