Foreign attendees usually need to apply for visas at least 2 months in advance, so ICC-2010 recommends you apply for visas as early as possible. Please check with your local Chinese consulate or embassy to find out the earliest possible application date. Meanwhile, we strongly advise the foreign attendees to apply for Tourist Visa instead of Business Visa in view of the adjustments for visa applications to China this year. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to you.
