Requirements to visit a business exhibition or trade fair in China

To visit business exhibitions in China, you will typically need to meet several requirements related to visas, registration, and possibly health protocols.

Here are the general steps and requirements:

Visa Requirements
Business Visa (M Visa):

• Invitation Letter: Obtain an invitation letter from the exhibition organizers or a business contact in China.
• Application Form: Complete the Chinese visa application form.
• Passport: Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months from the date of entry and has at least two blank pages.
• Photo: Provide a recent passport-sized photo.
• Travel Itinerary: Provide details of your flight and accommodation bookings.
• Financial Proof: Show proof of sufficient funds for the duration of your stay.
• Previous Visas: If you have travelled to China before, you may need to provide copies of previous Chinese visas.
• Processing Time and Fees:

Visa processing times and fees vary by country, so check with the local Chinese embassy or call or email Visa world for specific details.

Registration for the Exhibition

• Pre-Registration:
  Most exhibitions require online pre-registration. Visit the official website of the exhibition to register. Provide your personal and business details, and sometimes upload a photo. Upon successful registration, you may receive an e-ticket or a confirmation email which you should print and bring with you.
• On-Site Registration:
  If you haven’t pre-registered, you can usually register on-site at the exhibition venue. Bring your business card and passport for identification. There may be on-site registration fees, which vary depending on the event.

Book your accommodation in advance and plan your transportation to and from the exhibition venue. Large cities in China typically have good public transportation networks.
