i just want to ask..do i need to apply for chinese visa even if im just 3 days on it.? and do i still need medical certificate?
Cath,
Yes, you still need a Chinese visa even if you only have a short trip to China. As for the specific request for the Chinese visa, please check the page of http://www.tour-beijing.com/philippines_beijing_tour/
do you have any packages for beijing for october of this year? excluding airfare coz im planning to avail a low rate ticket from cebu pacific. tnx
Hello Ellen,
We recommend to you two kinds of Beijing tour packages which will be interestsing to you – Beijing group tour packages and private tour packages:
1. Beijing Group Tour Packages ( see http://www.tour-beijing.com/budget_tours/ )
2. Beijing Private tour packages ( see http://www.tour-beijing.com/beijing_package_tour/ )
Have a nice trip to Beijing!
I just want to ask if how much am i going to spend if I choose to travel and visit china for just a month. Is it difficult to get a visa? Or is it better to look for an agency to work it for me? Do I need someone to invite me so I can easily get a visa? Thanks for your prompt reply.
Hello Jeffrey, how much money you have to spend is contingent on your travel budget ( budget hotels or luxury hotels, etc.). Basically one day travel in China costs you between US$ 50 and US$ 200 ( just for your reference). It is easy to get a Chinese travel visa either through your local travel agents or directly contacting our embassy or consultates in Philippines. To get a visa, you need to present your travel documents including air-tickets, hotel confirmation letters or tour bookings if you use a travel agwncy in China.
You may have a self-guided tour of China or use the travel agency in Philippines or in China. For more information, please check http://www.tour-beijing.com/philippines_beijing_tour/
Have a nice trip to China!
hello. . .im just a little bit confused because I wanted to visit china for a long time but getting a china visa is a hindrance for me because of the lack of time in applying. .now, I am already decided to visit china particularly beijing and shanghai and plan to get an airline promo ticket but somebody from the travel agency advised me to secure first visa before booking an airline. .
which is more advisable, get a visa first or airline/hotel booking? I read that an hotel/airline booking is needed for securing china visa. . thanks
Both are advisable and have their reasons. If you want to apply for a visa, you are required to offer your travel documents including air-ticket booking certificate. But if you fail to get your visa, then you have some trouble with your air-tickets.
So what should you do to solve the problem?
1. Basically, you may first reserve your tickets, just reserve, not purchase your tickets. Then you also can get your air-ticket booking document.
2. For the same reason, you may use http://www.booking.com to reserve your hotels in China. Please remember, just reserve, and you don’t have to pay in advance. Then you will again print out your hotel booking documents online.
You use both the air-ticket booking and hotel booking documents to apply for a visa.
When you have got your visa, you can purchase your air-tickets. If your air-ticket booking agent cannot hold your ticket booking till the day when you get the visa, then you have to book your air-ticket again. If so, your tickets prices will be higher.
If you book your hotels through http://www.booking.com, you can pay your hotels on the spot when you check in on your actual China trip.

Next question how far is Beijing to Shanghai?
Hello Mae,
If you fly from Manila to Beijing, then continue to fly to a third country ( not back to Manila), then you are eligible for free-visa 72 hours transit stay in Beijing.
Hello Mae,
About 1200km, 1 and half hours by flight, 5 hours by high-spedd trains, 16 hours by road.
We (3 pax-family) already purchased our roundtrip air tickets Manila-Beijing-Manila for December 21-25, 2013 but we don’t have visa yet. Can our local tour agency take care of it same as our Hongkong-Shenzhen experience? We don’t have time to do it ourselves.
Hello Madz,
You still need to apply for a Chinese visa either through a travel agency or visa agent, or go to the Chinese emabssy for the visa.

Hello Joan,
You still need to apply for China visa on your own. You may appy for a tourist visa. Please go to the Chinese embassy for more information in your case.
hi,
what are the visa requirments for philippine passport holders, and the application visa form to be fillup with, thanks
Hello Mark,
All Philippine passport holders require a visa before travel to Beijing China. There is no visa-on-arrival provision except in extraordinary cases. You should apply to the Chinese embassy or consulate to your home. Or you may turn to your local travel agency or visa agency for a Chinese visa. Your passport must be valid for six months from your proposed date of entry and contain two blank visa pages when you hand in the visa application. Getting the standard one-month tourist visa is not difficult.
