Hi, I am an American citizen living and working as an ESL teacher in Seoul. My friends and I have booked tickets to Beijing from May 5-8. We were originally told that since we DO NOT have six months left on our Alien Registration card that a travel agent could send our documents to the Busan and get the proper Visa from them since the Seoul, Chinese Embassy does not do this paperwork. I have been reading different things and am not sure what the regulations are now. Is the Chinese Embassy in Busan still doing Visas for people who have less than 6 months remaining on their ARC card? Any information you can give me would be great!
