China

Visa

Those who wish to study abroad in China need to apply for a visa. All international students should have
a passport and either a Study visa (X-visa) for a study period of more than 6 months or a Business visa (F-
visa) for a study period of 6 months or less.

Foreign students studying in China are required to hold an ordinary passport and a valid student visa.
Visa applications can take up to 4 weeks and can only begin once you have received an offer from a
Chinese university. This means you'll need to make sure you leave sufficient time to complete both your
Masters application and your visa application before your course start date

Most students will need to get an X-visa. To have it issued, you need to present a valid passport and
Letters of Admission for your university, and a JW 202 form. Once you are accepted to a Chinese
university, the university will prepare the JW202 form for you. This may take 2-4 weeks. Officers may
also require some additional documents, because visas are issued on case by case basis.

1. To be 18 years or older, in good health and to have no criminal record.
