hi, i applied for a visa to china. it is my first time visiting there for a holiday.

Question

Hi, I applied for a visa to China. It is my first time visiting there for a holiday. I am staying in HK & had planned to go to Guangdong, Shenzhen and Macao on separate occasions. The Visa Centre refused me a multi entry pass and only gave me a dual one. I was told that first time visitors are only allowed to apply for a dual or single entry visa and not a multi one. I could not find this information written on the Visa website. Is this really true or not? would really appreciate your advice. many thanks!

Mr.JOHNNASH · Answer

It is really true, generally speaking, first time applicants can't get a multiple-entry tourist visa if you don't have a immediate relative living in China or own a house in China. In addition, it is advisable to read China Tour Packages(https://www.travelchinaguide.com/tour/default.htm) to arrange your trip in Hk, Guangdong, Shenzhen and Macau.
