About:Policy for Foreigners with Immediate Family Living in China
Do I have to renew my passport before extending my L-visa?
Hi! I am from Pakistan. I have been living in China for about 3 months with my husband who is a student on X-visa. While I got L to visit my husband for the duration of 6 months(180 days). Now it is going to expire in Feb 2013, while my passport will expire at the end of May 2013. I want to extend my L for another 6 months, but till Feb my passport validity will be just of 3 months. I have heard from some resources that for extension of L-visa passport validity should be of 6 months at least. Is it true in China as well? Do I have to renew my passport before extending my L?
Please reply clearly and urgently .
