About:China Visa Entries / Validity / Duration of Stay
does the 180 days start from the entry date, or does it start from the issue date?
i have an F type multiple entry visa. The duration of each stay is 180 days. My issue date was August 19.2011, my entrance date was September 15.2011, My visa has no expiration date.
