CHINA STUDENT VISA APPLICATION

You will need to apply for a China student visa before coming to study Chinese at LTL. As a fully accredited Chinese language school, LTL can issue study visa invitations for the whole duration of your course in China. The process of applying for a Chinese visa is different in every Chinese consulate and embassy. It will also depend on your nationality, the country you live in and your previous Chinese visa history. The Chinese visa application process is famously opaque and even official information given by government authorities often is incorrect or outdated. However, we at LTL have many years of experience in providing visa support and will guide you through the process.

Visas for China are quite complex and it is important to pay attention when organizing them. The bureaucracy is often very inefficient.

However as long as you study at an accredited Mandarin school like LTL, the authorities welcome foreign students to the People’s Republic of China and you will be able to get a visa for your course.

We have had more than 5,000 students learning Mandarin at LTL so far and only one couldn’t come to China because of visa issues and that was because he left applying for the visa until the last week and did not follow our advice on how to do it. The other 2999+ all got theirs.

Once you book your Chinese course with us, we will ask you to send us a copy of your passport and will then issue your visa invitation documents.

Which kind of visa you should apply for will depend on how long you are coming to China for, your nationality and which embassy you are planning to apply at. We have tried to answer the most common visa related questions in our FAQ section below.
