Popular Post Larry Language Lover Posted July 3, 2024 at 01:49 PM Popular Post Report Posted July 3, 2024 at 01:49 PM For you seasoned folk on here, this is an ordinary thing. I went to the Chinese Embassy in Madrid (American living in Spain) on Monday and I have been given a 10 year multiple entry visa, 60 days each entry! I'm extremely excited since I have never been to China. I will be studying Mandarin in Kunming at Keats Chinese School. 10 1 Quote
Lu Posted July 3, 2024 at 02:17 PM Report Posted July 3, 2024 at 02:17 PM Hurray! Even if it's not the first time, it still feels like a big deal once you have it in your hands. Good luck with your studies, let us know how it goes! 1 Quote
abcdefg Posted July 3, 2024 at 03:07 PM Report Posted July 3, 2024 at 03:07 PM That's good news! Hope your trip and studies work out well! 1 Quote
Tomsima Posted July 3, 2024 at 06:12 PM Report Posted July 3, 2024 at 06:12 PM Great to hear, look forward to hearing how Keats is, very jealous of that 10 year multiple entry! 1 Quote
vellocet Posted July 3, 2024 at 06:15 PM Report Posted July 3, 2024 at 06:15 PM Your honeymoon is the best time in China. Enjoy it! Do not shy away from new experiences, accept most invitations, and don't be afraid to get on a bus, get off somewhere interesting-looking, and start walking. Get a taxi back home when you get tired. 3 1 Quote
Badger Posted July 4, 2024 at 07:04 AM Report Posted July 4, 2024 at 07:04 AM Enjoy it, because you only get one first experience in China, and it was incredible for myself. Question: did you get a tourist visa? 10 year 60 days sounds like that, which is what the language school uses? Quote

Yes, tourist visa. The school offers assistance (necessary documents) for either a tourist visa or a study visa. Quote

The school in China recommended I request it and that's all I did, I just requested it on the application. 1 Quote

Or perhaps Lijiang - or elsewhere? Sounds like you had a great time anyway. Hopefully you'll give us a fuller report sometime! (Apologies if I've missed it elsewhere). 2 Quote
