I am currently in Tehran and I would like to apply for a visa to visit China as a tourist.

I have the following questions please:


-Which forms should I fill in? How many forms are there?

-Could you please send me the forms or alternatively the link of the forms that I can download them online?

-Should I have flight reservation before visa application?

-Does an invitation letter required or hotel reservation is enough?

-How long does it take to issue a visa?

-Should I make an appointment to submit my form into the embassy? If yes, how should I do that?
