valid passport

Question

A valid passport must have at least 6 months left on it.  Is that duration from date of application?  Or from date of visit?  My passport expires in October 2013.  I plan on applying for my visa in the next couple of weeks, but our trip isn't until June 22 2013.  Can I still use my current passport?

6 month passport validity is required when you submit your application. But you can not apply too early as a single entry Chinese visa is only valid for 3 months after issue date. So, you'd better renew your passport first if you plan to apply late June.
