Applying Visa in Advance
Situation:
I am Singaporean
I will be touring with the Asian Youth Orchestra from 18th July-31st August around Asia (Including cities: Shanghai, Nanjing, BeiJing and TianJin)
My term at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music will start on the 1st September (I will fly to Shanghai right after my orchestra tour)
I will not be able to travel to Singapore to do my student X1 VISA from the period of 18July onwards.
I understand that all visa done in Singapore only allows a single entry to China.
However I will be traveling to many other different cities in China during August as part of the Asian orchestra tour.
My only option is to do my student X at the start of July before I fly off, my first stop will be in Shanghai.
Is it possible that I complete my Single Entry X application in early July and fly to Shanghai During mid July before my tour start, to convert the X1 Single Entry to a multiple entry one? Will that be a problem even though school wont start for another 2 months?
*please note that my official school term start 26th August, and I will attend school from 1st September onwards.
