Kota Kinabalu: Visa applications to China should be submitted to the China Embassy with an invitation letter from the local foreign affairs office at the provincial level in order to resume employment and manufacturing, according to Sabah United Chinese Chamber of Commerce President Tan Sri Andrew Liew.
In a statement Wednesday, he said because the Covid-19 pandemic is still evolving with many uncertainties, the evaluation and issuance of business visas to China has not returned to what it was prior to the pandemic.
“I addressed this situation to Liang Caide, the Chinese Consul-General in Kota Kinabalu, whom I met at an official event here a few days ago,” Andrew said.
“He explained that for visa applications to China for the resumption of work and production with special needs, an invitation letter should be issued by the local foreign affairs office at the provincial level, and the visa application should be submitted to their embassy with the invitation letter,” Andrew said.
