Hong Kong vs. Mainland China Visa?
Hong Kong vs. Mainland China Visa?
I am doing a study-abroad in Hong Kong China and have secured a student visa, however, I am also planning on touring mainland China once the school semester is over. Will I need a different visa to enter mainland china or will my student visa work?

yes, a different visa... your student visa to HK does not cover mainland China...

Hong Kong and China work on different visas. You will need to apply for a Chinese tourist visa. You can usually get them for up to 3 months, although this does depend where you are from. You can apply direct at the Embassy, or get a travel agent to do it for you they charge a small commission but it saves you queueing at the Embassy all day! :-)

You need to apply for a tourism "L" visa to enter China. When in Hong Kong, you may apply for your Chinese visa at the China Resources Building in Wan Chai. Normal processing is a few days, but overnight service is available for an additional fee.

Mandarin = subset of Chinese... Cantonese = subset of Chinese... Taiwanese = subset of Chinese... --> that is rubbish written by a queer girl
