Every U.S. Citizen/landed immigrant wishing to travel to China must submit a China visa application. No traveler, including business and pleasure travelers as well as students, will be admitted to the country without a China visa. How far in advance should I apply for a China visa? You cannot apply any further in advance of your trip than three months. It is highly recommended that you apply no later than three months in advance of your intended departure date. The more time you can allow for processing of your application, the better.
