X2 Visa Entry Date

[JimmyJones]

Hi there,

 

I am preparing to apply for an X2 Student Visa (less than 180 days) from the visa centre in London, UK

 

Just a quick question for anyone who has recently recieved an X2 Visa from the UK;

 

- Does the "Enter Before" date on the visa match the intended arrival date you stated on your application form? or is it valid to enter anytime from 3 months after the application date (similar I believe to L the Visa)

 

Many thanks in advance,

 

Jimmy

No idea about Chinese X2 visa. My husband applied visa from HK before. He applied in Feb, and the enter before date on the visa was May. I guess they would give you 3 months.

Hi ,

On the visa page there will be have the time say "enter before"it is means your last finally time enter into china.and the entry time and duration time will limited to you.such as tourist visa for 3 months with 2 entries every 30 days ,enter before Dec,30th,2014 year.

Then it is means that before Dec,30th 2014 year you need to enter into china,this will be the last time to enter into china.each time enter into china only can stay for 30 days.

 

Hope this will be helpful to you !i do not know that if this is the answer that you needed,if not ,welcome to contact me,will be gald to help you ,thanks

As far as I know, the "Enter Before" date on the Visa is 3 months after the issuing date (a couple of days after your application).
