Hi, Bernald! Did your wife have a green card by the time your daughter was born? If yes, your daughter need to apply for a visa. If not, your daughter need to apply for a China travel document. No matter which document you will apply, the appointment is not required.

Tank you. What is Chinese travel document? My Daughter used to have entry exit pass. But they will not renew it.

Rajesh · Answer

Chinese travel document is issued to Chinese nationals born abroad who acquire Chinese nationalities at birth in accordance with the Nationality Law of PRC. Although your daughter holds US passport, if you wife didn’t acquire US green card before your daughter was born, your daughter can apply for a Chinese travel documents to travel to PRC.
