Travel
Business trips and family travel to the places we know best — or to China. Visas, hotels, cars, interpreters and meetings, run by people who live there.
Three ways we help
01
Market weeks, fair weeks, factory tours and delegations, with the meetings set up before you land.
02
Islands, mountains and heritage — on their own, or after the meetings.
03
Visa checks, applications, invitation letters and appointments, for any trip.
Visa and passport check
Any passport, any country. See the visa you need, how long you can stay, when to apply and what to bring.
