Recent (2011) Visa For China Experience ?

[orang37]

Sawasdee Khrup,

I'm American, and live in Chiang Mai: would like to get out Chiang Mai for two/three months or so during the hot/polluted season, and have Kunming in mind.

Read/searched all the threads on this forum on China (most are quite old). I would assume, from what I've read, that thirty days in any one stay is probably still the maximum, even if you do have a multi-entry visa.

Would appreciate hearing about any recent (after January 2011) experiences in visa application for China for US passport holders. Multi-entry visa obtained ? Limits ? Costs ?

thanks ! ~o:37;
