Invitation Letter of Duly Authorized Entity
I have got invitation letter from our company to attend a training for 3 days. But there is a requirement to provide "Original Invitation letter (compulsory) attested from the Chinese Authorities Unit "MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS CHINA"." I contacted my company to assist in this regard, but HR department apologize that i have to arrange myself using the colleagues' contact from China.
Being a Pakistani, how come I arrange such certificate from Ministry of Foreign Affairs of PRC, I don't have resources/contacts in this regard. I have formal invitation and other requirements ready.
I have approached few of the local travel agent, but they are demanding US$ 700-1200 for arranging the invitation letter from Ministry of Foreign Affairs of PRC. Please help in this regard as i cant afford such an amount.
