Various Visa Application Requirements in HK / BJ for PRC Passport ...

这些天断断续续给很多个国家的香港领事馆打了电话，了解我们这本可爱的PRC护照的签证情况，一下是一些小小总结。当然，一个大前提是要香港ID.

Latin America:

- Argentina / Peru / Brazil only required basic material，including ，Company Leave Letter, trip itinerary, etc. No invitation letter required. Visa will be issued on a multiple entry basis. Processing time of up to 5 working days.

- Chile could be troublesome as the staff mentioned invitation letter as a might-be-required doc, however he mentioned that the visa officer would process as per your preparation (ie. trip planning, booking, etc). I don't foresee a big problem as my friends have been granted visa without such proof.

Africa:

- South Africa: basic materials required to apply, only issue 3 month tourist visa with multiple entry

- Kenya: visa on arrival

- Tanzania: will have to apply in its Embassy in BJ through a designated travel agency or apply in person with itinerary provided by local travel agency. However it says in wiki that PRC passport holders can apply visa on arrival. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_requirements_for_Chinese_citizens)
