Chinese Tourist Visa

Eligibility

  • Issued to a person who is coming to China for sightseeing, to visit family or friends, or other private purposes.

How does this work?

Instead of you applying in person at the Chinese Consulate we do it for you. All you have to do is mail the application and Passport to us. All of the Visa requests are hand delivered to the Chinese Consulate. Once the Visa request is fulfilled Master Visa Service will pick it up, and safely returned to you. This can save you up to two trips to the Chinese Consulate.
