Notice on Launching the China Online visa Processing System

Dear Applicants,

To further enhance the efficiency of visa applications and optimize service processes, our Visa Center will collaborate with the Chinese embassy in Denmark to launch the China online visa processing system. Starting from March 31^st 2025, all applicants (excluding visa applicants for Hong Kong SAR and Macao SAR) must first complete the online application form and submit materials through the new system. After passing the online review, applicants may proceed to the Visa Center to submit their documents (diplomatic or official visa applicants please continue to submit materials at the embassy or consulate concerned).

To ensure a smooth system upgrade, the Visa Center will conduct system updates on March 28^th 2025. After the upgrade, all forms filled in on the current website can no longer be used. Therefore, applicants who have already filled in forms on the current website must submit their materials to the Visa Center before March 28^th 2025. Additionally, during the system upgrade period (from 00:00 on March 28^th 2025 to 00:00 on March 29^th 2025), we advise applicants not to fill in forms to avoid data loss.

After launching the China Online Visa Processing System, the visa application process will be as follows:
