Questions & Answers on China Embassy in Germany

Asked by Joanna from GERMANY | Jun. 05, 2023 13:08

how many days does regular and express take?

Hi, I need to go to China in 20 days. the number of days for regular or express is not specified in the online form. Which should I choose?

Answers (1)

Answered by Emily | Jun. 06, 2023 18:24

Theoretically, the processing time of the regular service is about 4 working days and express means about 3 working days. However, the time generally takes longer in practice. So it is more recommended to choose express service if you are in a hurry.

The requirements for a student visa include the enrollment notice of the university, your passport, application form and residence permit in Germany as you will apply there. They may ask for more requirements during the process. Also, apply through the closest China Visa Application Centers to you instead of China embassy.

Answered by Kitosi Ronald | Mar. 21, 2023 02:59

I don't have a residence permit I just have a long stay visa in Germany for 6 months because I'm here on a short course of 5 months and am supposed to leave immediately of after the short course completed which will end in July.
