changing chinese visa from l to f

Question

Hi, I currently have a tourist (L) expiring in 2023. I am looking to have a business (F) type to visit several Chinese suppliers. What do I need to do to upgrade the L type to (F) type?Thanks,Kevin

Kevin, you need to get the invitation letter from your trade partner, your passport and its copy, the application form, a passport-style photo, and then you can apply for the F visa. After you get the F visa, the L visa will be voided. Actually, I think you can use the L visa to enter PRC and visit several Chinese suppliers.
