About:Chinese Embassies in Asia
I am a New Zealand passport holder, currently on a tourist visa, travelling in South Korea. Recently South Korea changed the rules for obtaining visas to China. Now anyone on a tourist visa here can not apply for a visa for China.So I plan to travel to Hong Kong to get my tourist visa for China, alas it says on their website if one does not reside in Hong Kong then one must obtain their China visa from their country of residence..This is simply not possible for me.Is this rule so rigid?? Or are there exceptions??
If not what suggestions do you have for a new zealand passport holder on a tourist visa in Korea wanting to obtain a tourist visa for China??
Many Thanks
