What is required to obtain an M visa from Dublin?

In addition to the standard set of documents, Irish nationals are required to submit documents on commercial activities issued by a trading partner in China, or other invitation letters issued by the relevant organisation or individual, namely:

  • An invitation letter from the inviting Chinese company or individual with information regarding the inviting company or individual, address, official stamp and signature;
  • Information about the applicant, including the name, date of birth, gender, et cetera;
  • Details of the applicant’s trip (purpose of the visit, financial sources for the visit, relationship between the applicant and the inviting party, date of arrival and departure, places the applicant plans to visit, etc.).

How long can Irish residents stay in China on a business visa?

As a rule, a business visa to China is a multiple entry visa (giving the right to an unlimited number of entries during the indicated period) with the right to stay in the country for 30 or 60 days. This is very convenient for Irish businessmen who are looking for new suppliers and customers in China, and who regularly negotiate with existing partners.

A business visa (M visa) is intended to visit China for business purposes and does not imply being in the PRC at a permanent workplace and working for foreign or Chinese entities. To work in the territory of China, regardless of the term, Irish nationals are required to obtain Z visa.
