pazu Posted June 7, 2004 at 07:48 AM Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 at 07:48 AM Because visa regulation is different for different nationality... (well.. obvious enough!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alleluia Posted June 11, 2004 at 08:21 PM Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 at 08:21 PM Have you tried to find out yourself? Should be easy enough: there's the internet, Chinese embassies and consulates, travel agencies... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geraldc Posted June 11, 2004 at 09:08 PM Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 at 09:08 PM If you're arriving in Hong Kong, just go to your closest CTS (China Travel Service office), and get a visa. Alternatively you can get one in the US. The only people I know who can get into China without a visa are overseas Chinese with HK ID and home return permits...

TSkillet Posted June 14, 2004 at 11:38 AM Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 at 11:38 AM Yes you need a visa. If you're going to Hong Kong - don't bother to go to the consulate in the US - just go to Hong Kong and get it done yourself. Either through a travel agent or go down to the China Resources Building in Wanchai and do it yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeafAndSunshine Posted September 5, 2005 at 08:48 AM Report Share Posted September 5, 2005 at 08:48 AM ^^ I think all of you would need a visa. The reason is that there is no travel restrictions in most parts of China other than Tibet and maybe some really remote places, therefore once you get into 1 mainland city, no one can or will stop you from going to any other parts of China.

LeafAndSunshine Posted September 8, 2005 at 02:37 PM Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 at 02:37 PM ^^^ To be honest, I don't know the details which would change depending on where you are. But I think the local Chinese embassy or a travel agency should be able to handle the visa issue. The general impression I have is that as long as you are not a well-known anti-Chinese government person, the visa should just be a formality and you or your friends shouldn't have any trouble getting it.
