The Chinese consulate in Vienna announces that as of 01.07.2022, an official PU invitation issued by a local authority in China is NO longer required for business visa applications. A business invitation issued by the Chinese partner company is sufficient for the application.
The business invitation from the Chinese partner company must be issued on company paper and bear a stamp and signature. It must also include the planned date of entry, the purpose of entry, the passport details of the applicant and the contact details of the inviting party.Your ÖVKG Team

Please note that the processing time for visa issuance at the consulate of Japan currently always takes 14 days due to the high volume of applications. There is no possibility of express processing.
Please note that due to the high volume, interview appointments at the US consulate are currently only granted 1-2 months after the application has been submitted. We therefore ask you to submit any applications in good time so that there are no delays.
