CHINA LETTER OF INVITE FORM

***PLEASE READ THE ENTIRETY OF THE TEXT BELOW AS THIS IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR YOUR ENTRY INTO CHINA ***

GENERAL INFORMATION:
- Please note that visas are the responsibility of the individual traveller. The visa requirements for your trip vary depending on where you are from and where you are going. We keep the following information up to date as much as possible, but rules do change. It is important that you check for yourself with the Embassy of China. Please, keep in mind that all countries require passports valid for at least 6 months from the moment of departure from the country.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
- To apply for a China visa, some countries may be required to present an official Letter of Invitation (LOI).
- PLEASE NOTE: If your Visa application OR your E-Visa application does NOT require a Letter of Invitation, please do NOT fill this form out.

COMPLETING THE LOI FORM:
- Please do not submit the below application until 3 months prior to your entry into China. The details will be forwarded to our local agent in China and you will be emailed your Chinese Invitation Letter only once we are within 60 days of the trip start date.
- As Chinese visas are dated specifically for entry and exit, please ensure you enter the correct dates as per your flights entering and exiting China. Please remember to put exactly the same dates when you fill out the application at the Chinese embassy. You will need to provide additional documentation to the consulate (i.e. flights tickets, hotel reservations) if these dates fall outside the duration of the tour.
- Please note that while Hong Kong is part of the People's Republic of China (PRC) as a Special Administrative Regions (SAR), it has separate entry requirements. For your visa application, please only use the dates you enter or exit mainland China.
- Input your name the same way it is in your passport. The information on the application form must match your passport (if you have 2 or more names - all of them have to be listed under "first name").
- If you have an umlaut or other character not recognised in the english alphabet in your name (ie. ü), please enter it in the longer form (ie. ue).

For the following trips, you should fill out the form:
ACCJ - Ancient Empires - Beijing to Tokyo - Days 1-8

To receive your LOI for China please fill in all of the requested details below and click on the SUBMIT button at the bottom.

***Please carefully check all the information below prior to submitting - it is your responsibility to check whether passport details, name spelling and dates on the LOI are correct.***

NEXT STEPS:
- Once you have received your China LOI, you can apply for your visa by going to the Chinese Embassy.
