Starting from November 20, 2023, the requirement for appointment will be removed and applicants can directly submit application documents at the Visa Center on any working day.

II. Accept all applications meeting requirements

The Visa Center will accept all visa applications that meet the application requirements on the same day. Starting from November 20, 2023, the daily quota for applications will be removed. The Visa Center will accept all applications submitted within the due time limit.

III. Service choice up to applicants

VIP service is a third party service offered by the Visa Center. The content of the VIP service is subject to the Visa Center, and is NOT related to the issuance of visas by the Consulate General or the processing time.
