Hi everyone,

I am currently in China on an L visa however will need to extend it. It expires on the 1st of October, the national holiday. I have a tour booked that will be taking me into remote areas that we will not be in one place for more than 1 day so cant extend it once the tour starts. Can anyone tell me, if I apply for my visa extension and it takes 3 days to process, does it become valid from the day I drop it off or the day I collect it? As I will be very close on times if it is from the day I take it to the PSB office.

Thanks
