Visa Announcement
Chinese Visa | 中国签证
Conference participants may need a Chinese
visa to enter China. Specifically, those who
are not Chinese citizens, except passport
holders from Singapore, Brunei, and Japan,
need a Chinese visa. Participants can apply
for a visa at the Chinese embassy or
consulate in the region in which they live.
To avoid uncertainty, participants will be
advised to apply for a visa as early as
possible. It is recommended that they apply
for a Chinese visa at least 1 month in
advance.
For most attendees, it is easier to apply
for a Tourist ("L") visa; an invitation
letter is NOT required for obtaining a
Tourist visa.
