Need to travel both HK and Mainland China for a short perid on official
Hi,
I am a Sri Lankan working in Japan with Alien Registrtion and 3years renewal working visa. My family also living in Japan.
I intend to visit HK and Mainland China on an official trip, most probably in early Oct2012. My question is, can I apply for visa at Chinese Embassy in Tokyo to travel both Hong Kong and Mainland China? If yes, do I have to fill two applications or one application will be enough? How log will it take if I apply visa for both?

- what kind of passport are you holding? is that an official passport?
if so you don't need to apply the Hong Kong visa since Sri Lankan Official passport holders are exempt from Hong Kong visa for 14 days, but you still need to apply the visa to Mainland China.
if you are holding an ordinary passport, you need to apply the visa for both Hong Kong and Mainland China. you can apply them through the Chinese Embassy in Tokyo, and you need to fill in two forms.Answered by Lisa | Jul. 19, 2012 20:41 - Thanks, Lisa. I am holding a ordinary passport, means need to apply for both HK and China visa.
What are the documents needed for submission? Need duplicate set of documents for visa submission of HK and China?
Do I have to submit a confirmed air ticket together with visa application?
Please advie.

not necessary, but you can prepare the duplicate set of documents.
the air ticket is not include in the requirement, but the officer at the embassy may ask you to provide it.
usually it is suggested to apply the visa 1 month before departure.
