China Tourist Visa Application - anyone done one recently?

[Wuvu2]

I applied online as instructed at https://visaforchina.cn/ .  My application first said "under review" for a couple of days and now "no data found". The Chinese Visa Center has yet to respond to email inquiry about this. Has anyone been through the process that can advise how the website is supposed to work?

It may have to do with the holidays.  This is from the visaforchina website.  You may be SOL until the 6th of May.

 

 

If you're in Bangkok, I'd suggest going by their office when they open, near Makkasan, and ask at their reception desk.  I stopped by a few weeks ago and they were very helpful in person.  I was trying to upgrade my visa (technically, to cancel the existing one and get a new one).  I couldn't wait their claimed 3 working day expedited turnaround (for extra money), but they were helpful nonetheless.

 

5th Floor, Thanapoom tower.  There's no sign on the building that I saw. 

 

Post back when you do figure it out.

Thank you Sir,

I applied on the 29th and missed that they would be closed. Your head's up is very helpful.  I'm American - I wouldn't blame them if I wasn't welcome. Hopefully, it is just the holiday delay 🙏

 

Thanks again!
