Can I get married with a tourist visa in China?
hello there~ i just came from china last week as a tourist for 7 days, and planning to go back there again next month. this time, i'd like to stay for 1 month to be with my chinese boyfriend longer. since this is my second time to apply a tourist visa, need he present an invitation letter a sponsorship letter, and a bank certificate for me?
we're planning to get married in china next month. it's ok to get married with a tourist visa, right?
thanks!Asked by xj20100223 (Philippines) | May. 29, 2011 22:09Answer Question

- yes, the invitation letter and sponsorship letter, and bank certificate are still needed.
you can go to China to get married with a Tourist visa. but you need to apply for a residence permit after you get married. Coz your tourist visa will not allow you to stay that long.Answered by Julie | May. 30, 2011 22:49 - so if i get a residence permit, how long can i possibly stay there? and is it easy to get one? thanks so much for answering ~ ^^Answered by xj20100223 (Philippines) | May. 31, 2011 07:22
- i think Julie is not very clear about your question.
since you and your BF are not married yet, you can come to China with a tourist visa.
then after you get married in China, you can go to the Departure and Entry Office in the city your husband live in to apply for an extension for your visa.
since you only stay in china for 1 month, you don't need to apply the Residence Permit. it is for the person who is going to live in China for more than 6 months.Answered by tina | Jun. 01, 2011 23:19
