Hi this Ging, living in Japan with a long term visa, has 2 Japanese children.

Can you tell me your nationality? Japanese ordinary passport holders are exempt from a visa to Mainland China for up to 15 days, your 2 Japanese children don't need a visa. You need to apply for a China visa, can you tell me where do you live in Japan? China embassy in Tokyo and China consulate in Fukuoka, Nagasaki, Nagoya, Osaka, Sapporo and Niigata have different consular districts.

Thank you for your reply, this is Ging living in Japan with a long term visa residence. I am a Phillipine citizen but I live in Japan. HOw can I have a visiting visa to Shanghai, China? Thank you and I will wait to your reply.

Ging, can you tell me where do you live in Japan? Which city in Japan?
