GBR Citizen with Aus residency. Wife Aus citizen. 8 day stay. Which visa? and how much in Au$

Frank, will you apply for a Chinese entry permit in Australia? If so, you should tell what is your purpose of visiting PRC? For a trip? If so, you should apply for a tourist type. As for the cost, you should tell where you live. Then I can help you figure out which CVASC center you should go. You know, there are several CVASC centers there and the fee is a bit different.
