Overview

China does not offer Indian passport holders a tourist e-visa or visa-on-arrival — every applicant submits a sticker visa in advance through the Chinese Visa Application Service Centre (CVASC), and Explera is your China visa specialist for the full file. The COVA form (China Online Visa Application, completed online then printed and signed) and a fixed day-wise itinerary are scrutinised closely, so accuracy on the very first submission is what protects your travel date.

Fingerprint biometrics are mandatory at the CVASC for applicants aged 14–70 (limited exemptions apply), so at least one in-person visit to the centre is required even though Explera prepares and lodges the entire application. We book and brief you for that biometric appointment and hand you a submission-ready pack, so the visit takes minutes.

We specialise in every China category Surat travellers use — L (tourism), M (business, with an invitation letter from a Chinese entity), Q1/Q2 (visiting family or Chinese relatives) and X1/X2 (student) — and secure multiple-entry visas for the city’s ceramics, textile, diamond-tool and machinery exporters who visit Yiwu, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and the Canton Fair repeatedly through the year.

Who needs a China visa?

Indian passport holders need a tourist (l) / business (m) visa (embassy) for China, submitted through the embassy or VFS with biometrics. A complete, well-presented file is decisive — Explera prepares your cover letter, itinerary, financials and forms to embassy standards.

Why China visas get refused — and how we prevent it

Most refusals come down to avoidable mistakes. Explera pre-screens every application against each of these before we file:

!

Incomplete, inconsistent or poorly-scanned documents

!

Insufficient or unexplained bank balance and unclear funding

!

Passport valid for less than 6 months or without blank pages

!

Weak travel history or an unconvincing purpose of visit for first-time applicants

!

Unconfirmed or unrealistic itinerary, tickets or hotel bookings

Tips for a smooth China visa

  • Keep your passport valid at least 6 months beyond your China travel dates, with 2+ blank pages.
  • Maintain a healthy, steady bank balance for 3–6 months before you apply — sudden large deposits raise questions.
  • Apply early: start your China visa at least 3–4 weeks before departure to absorb any delay.
  • Bundle your visa with flights, hotels and insurance through Explera — a complete, consistent file approves faster.
