do we need a detailed intinerary for visa application?

Question

We are travelling to China in  late October after meeting up with friends in Hong kong. The friends who live in Hong Kong are trying to arrange a trip over there to China. We do not have a proper itinerary as they are still checking it out and may not have a final one before we leave here for London  at the beginning of October. Will we still be able to get a visa without this information? Is the single entry only valid for 6 days?

Derek · Answer

Do you have the invitation letter? If not, you are required to provide round-trip air tickets and hotel reservation in China. Travel itinerary is not a must. In general, an ordinary L allows you to stay in China for 30 days.
