Dear Ambassador, I am a New Zealand doctor, living in Chengdu for just 3 months to learn about health service initiatives here. My wife and I hope to travel to Mongolia at the start of August for one week. We did not arrange for a visa before we left NZ as we did not know our plans. Do we have to travel to Beijing in order to obtain a visa for Mongolia? Is there another way to obtain a visa? Otherwise it is too far for us to travel from here to Beijing and then on to Mogolia. Thank you for your consideration. My email address for reply is paradise.net.nz|quix.
