Normally, single entry Chinese visas are valid for 3 months, which means you must enter China within 3 months after the visa was issued. Double entry visas are valid for 6 months and Multiple entry visas are valid for either 6 months or 12 months and they come with different fees. The validity of a Chinese visa starts from the date it was issued, not the date you enter China.

Immigrant and fiance(e) visas have a maximum validity of 6 months. That means you must enter the U.S. within 6 months of the date we issue the visa to you.

This is dependent upon your travel itinerary and the Chinese Embassy's own assessment. Please contact us with your requirements and we will try to help.

The validity date is based upon the earlier of: your or your dependents' passport validity date(s), or the medical validity date(s). Medical examination results are valid for 12 months after the initial medical examination. Immigrant visas cannot be extended once issued. If applicants do not use the visas within their validity, they must reapply for immigration to Canada.

Your immigration visa will state how long it will be valid for. Once issued, immigration visas cannot be extended which means you have to enter Canada before the expiry date on the visa. If you do not use the visa within its validity, then you must apply all over again for immigration to Canada.
