With its rapidly growing trade volume, deep cultural heritage and the opportunities it offers to the business world, the People's Republic of China is increasingly chosen by Turkish citizens for both tourism and business travel. Chinese visa applications require careful preparation due to the scope of required documents and the mandatory biometric registration. At Visa Via we manage the entire process on your behalf, from determining the right application category to appointment booking and result tracking.
A Chinese visa is the official travel authorisation Turkish citizens need in order to enter the People's Republic of China for tourism, business, visits, study or transit. Visas are issued in different categories depending on the purpose of travel, and each category has its own document set. Applying under the correct category is decisive for a smooth process.
We clarify which category suits you during the free pre-assessment.
For tourist applications the consulate wants to see that your trip is genuinely touristic and that your ties to Türkiye are strong. Return flight reservations, hotel bookings covering the full stay and a day-by-day travel plan are therefore essential. Bank statements demonstrating financial sufficiency and documents proving your employment status further strengthen your file.
For business applications, the invitation letter issued by your counterpart company in China is the core element of the file. It must clearly state the purpose and duration of travel, the cities to be visited and who will cover the costs. On the Turkish side, your company's activity certificate, signature circular, tax certificate and commercial correspondence serve as supporting documents. An invitation that meets consular expectations in both content and format significantly reduces the risk of refusal.
Fingerprint registration is mandatory for Chinese visa applications, so the applicant must attend the appointment in person. Appointments are booked through the Chinese Visa Application Centre and slots can fill up quickly in busy periods. We therefore recommend starting the process well before your travel date. We plan your appointment and submission on your behalf and verify that your file is complete before you go.
We review every one of these points before your file is submitted.
