Dear Mr.Richard,

I got an internship in shanghai for 12 months as an architect, i live in dubai and I have UAE residence visa and i hold A type Passport.
For which visa should i apply [ tourist, business ]or what?
The company advised me to apply for a tourist visa and once i get there i can transfer it to residence visa becuase it is my first time in china. I would be thankful if you guide me to the right procedure......looking forward to your reply.
