The following instructions applies to the Chinese Visa Application Form V2011A, which is required by all applicants. If you are applying for work visa or student visa, or you are holding a non-US passport, please also submit the supplemental form V2011B.

Please note: from 2011/07/01, Houston consulate adopts the new 4-page V2011A form. All previous versions of visa applicaton forms are no longer accepted.

The official instructions are in PDF files: V2011A Instructions and V2011B Instructions. Here we just highlight some important points.

  • Forms may not be filled by hand with a pen: all fields must either be filled online and printed, or typed using a type writer, in CAPITAL letters -- the only exception is Chinese name and signature.
  • For fields not applicable to your situation, put N/A or NONE. Do not leave them blank.
  • No changes in the fields by hand is allowed.
  • Section 1.5 applies only to applicants holding a non-US passport, so most applicants may simply put "NONE" or "N/A".
  • For section 1.11, you may put your driver's license number.
  • For section 1.17, put the passport issuing agency AS APPEARS ON YOUR PASSPORT and country name. For US passport, this is usually "DEPARTMENT OF STATE, USA". However, since there is not enough space, you may simply put "USA".
  • Section 2.2, if you apply for two-year multiple entry visa, select "Other", then specify "TWO-YEAR MULTIPLE". Note that currently 2-year multiple is only available to selected group of applicants.
  • For section 2.5, if you do not have a complete address, at least put the name of city.
  • Section 2.7, if your insurance covers you while you are aboard, please put the information there.
  • Sections 2.8/2.9, put relevant information there if you have.
  • For minor (< 18), parent please fill out section 7 and sign there (do not sign in section 6).

After your fill out the Chinese visa application form, please fill out the online order form of our agency, then mail documents to us. The "step by step procedures" are on the main index page.

Tips

You do not need to fill out box 4.9 (person who invites you) if you do not have one.

You may use self-taken pictures for visa application (please print at photo stores), see visa photo requirement.

For US citizens, a 1-year multiple visa is as easy to get as a single visa, and costs the same.

Frequent travelers, please make sure you have at least one blank visa page.

You may make a single payment to us for consular fee, service fee and shipping.

If you were born in mainland China, Hong Kong or Taiwan, please write you name in Chinese characters on the application form, and you may need to submit additional documents.
