    Why APVI

    China is complex. We make it simple.

    Chinese consulate requirements vary by jurisdiction and change frequently. APVI specialists track every policy shift in real time — and review every application before it's submitted.

    • Direct submission to the embassies of China in Washington DC and New York
    • Invitation letter review — the #1 cause of M visa rejections
    • Dedicated specialist assigned to your case from start to finish
    • Real-time tracking and proactive status updates

    How it works

    Three steps. That's it.

    We prepare the paperwork and submit directly to the Chinese consulate. You handle the meetings.

    01

    Place your order

    Choose your visa type and processing speed. Tell us when you're traveling — we work backward from that date.

    02

    Submit documents

    Upload your application online for review. We email a prepaid overnight FedEx label for your originals.

    03

    Get your visa

    We submit directly to the consulate and overnight your stamped passport back to your door.

    DIY vs. APVI

    Skip the rejection risk, and the trip-ending delays.

    Most travelers don't realize how easy it is for an M visa to be bounced back for a small invitation-letter formatting issue — until they're already past their travel date.

    Without APVI

    The DIY path

    • Confusing forms and shifting consulate rules
    • Wrong consulate jurisdiction = automatic rejection
    • Invitation letter formatting errors
    • Outdated post-pandemic policy info
    • Trip at risk if anything goes wrong
    With APVI

    The APVI path

    • Expedited processing options available
    • Pre-submission review by a China visa specialist
    • Correct jurisdiction confirmed for your state
    • Invitation letter validated against current policy
    • Real-time tracking + dedicated specialist
