So I am currently in China studying on an F visa which expires at the end of September, but I have a spare 2 weeks now and thought it would be best to renew now seeing as I am enrolling in a new programme which will probably want to see the new visa, and getting time off later will be messy (and I suspect travelling at the end of Sept during Mid Autumn festival will be way too busy - PEK airport delays are terrible as it is!)
I need to get another F visa.
However, its not clear whether I must return to Australia to apply for it there (as my home country), of if I could take a shorter trip to renew somewhere else, e.g. HKG probably (or perhaps even SIN).
Can I Get a Chinese Visa in Hong Kong – Monthly Updated Information on Getting a Chinese Visa in Hong Kong. suggests that I can get a double entry in HKG but if I want more than 2 entries, I must return to Australia. Current visa expires on 30 Sept, need to stay until 22 Dec. Need to be back in PEK by Sept 2.
Should I return to Aus to do this or just fix it in HKG? Probably using China Travel Service (China Travel Service (H.K.) Limited) or even the PRC Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
