Turn in a complete application. Include two pictures of yourself to accompany the application and your passport. Make sure that if you will be leaving and entering mainland China several times that you have a multiple entry visa. Verify that your visa covers your entire stay in China - you don't want a visa that is only good for six months if you will be there for 12. Choose the type of service you want: standard, rush or next day. You will get your visa anytime between the next day and six days later.
