China Visa Passport Mailing Package Checklist
Build the passport package only after online review authorizes submission and keep a traceable record of every enclosed item.
Core steps
- Include the current barcode page and required originals
- Use tracking and save the acceptance receipt
- Never include unrelated originals or cash
How to keep the file consistent
Use the passport bio page as the identity baseline, then compare names, dates and numbers across COVA, invitation, itinerary, residence evidence and category documents. Correct differences before submission or explain them factually with supporting records.
Common mistakes
- Treating another applicant's experience as a fixed rule for this case.
- Mailing the passport before online review authorizes submission.
- Uploading blurred, cropped or outdated evidence.
Pre-submission checklist
- The visa category matches the actual travel purpose.
- Every upload is complete and readable, with originals retained.
- The responsible jurisdiction and current official notice have been checked.
