VISA SUPPORT SERVICE

All UK citizens visiting China require a visa that must be obtained in the UK before travel. British nationals do not need a visa to visit Hong Kong.

The China Travel Company offers a visa support service, saving you the time and effort involved in the lengthy visa application process. A charge is made for this service. We recommend that you leave three weeks to process visas on our Standard Service. We also offer a Rapid Service (approximately two weeks) and an Express Service (approximately one week) at additional cost.

We will need to receive your passport, completed and signed visa application form, one recent passport-sized photograph stapled twice to the upper-right corner of the application form and proof of travel insurance not more than three months, and not less than three weeks in advance of travel. We will provide all relevant supporting documents ie. voucher and confirmation as part of our Visa Service.

A full valid original 10-year passport with at least one blank page is required for all travelers. However, if infants and children are on their parents' passport (where it is still valid), they may still travel on this passport providing the parent is also traveling.

If your passport shows you are a British Subject rather than a British Citizen, or if you are a citizen of a country other than Great Britain you are advised to check with the relevant embassy/consulate since entry conditions may vary.

For all visas, passports should be valid for at least six months beyond your return holiday date. China visas require at least one empty page. Visas for China and Belarus require one completely empty page for their visa stamps.

For visa applications to more than one country please notify us at least two months in advance of travel.

If you require a visa and your application is refused or delayed for any reason by the authorities, thus delaying or preventing departure then the China Travel Company will not be liable for any costs incurred, or for any changes to the arrangements or loss due to cancellation.

We recommend that you carry photocopies of your passport and visas, kept separately to the originals.
