If you do need a visit visa ( F visa ) , please send the following information to Ms. Lei Dang ( dangl@ihep.ac.cn), we will provide you the invitation letter and visa letter supporting your visa application(It will take about 10 days to get a visa letter after we receive your information).

• Name on the passport:
• Passport Number and its expiration date:
• Gender:
• Citizenship:
• Date of birth:
• Stay Period:
• The Name and Address of your institution/university:
• Which Chinese Embassy you plan to get your visa(s) (name of the city and country):
• Have you ever visited China with a F visa: Yes or No? (Please send us the scanned copy of your F visa page. There is a new rule for visa letter application at CAS, the visitor who have visited China with a F-visa could apply for a multiple entry F visa letter, or only the application for one-entry visa letter could be issued or by CAS. )

The process of visa application may take some time, depending on the particular type of visa you apply for. Please consult a Chinese consulate near you for detailed information.
