Need confirmation for China visa info.

Hi There,

I am planning a trip to China with my wife in April.

We live in France, on the border with Switzerland.
My wife holds a Slovakian Passport and a Swiss work permit,
I hold an Irish passport, and do not work in Switzerland.
I will have Flight confirmation and hotel bookings. I plan to travel within China also (internal flights).

I assume you would require,
Wifes Passport,
Wifes permit,
My passport,
flight confirmation in and out of China.
Hotel confirmation.

Is there anything else, as we live in France is it still OK to apply in Bern, or must we go to Paris?

Many Thanks

Kevin
