[Bonetools] Worked Bone Research Meeting 2013

Sat Sep 22 11:18:35 CEST 2012

Dear Marloes,
    Maybe I missed something but last year I could get a visa in a few
hours to China - normally (with non-dummies who remember that they NEED a
visa in due time).
Here is information for a tourist visa for 30 days which is what you all
need as issued by the embassy in Budapest.

Number of Entry

Citizens of Hungary and other countries

American citizens

Single Entry

8000Ft

32000Ft

Double Entry

12000Ft

32000Ft

Multiple Entry for 6 Months

16000Ft

32000Ft

Multiple Entry for 12 Months

24000Ft

32000Ft

The regular processing time is *4 working days*. For express service,
additional fees of 7000Ft for *1 working day* processing (applications
presented before 10:30am may be picked up between 11:00-11:45am on the same
day), and 4500Ft for *2-3 working days* processing will be charged.

You must use the visa within 90 days of it being issued.

I guess the most difficult part is that everyone needs to go directly to
this embassy at least although there are plenty of agencies who will do all
the legwork for a fee. /

If i have missed something please correct me. I can ask Xiaolin directly if
we needs some other kind of visa but I would be surprised.

Cheers!

Alice
