Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
you can find all current and relevant entry information on the website of the Chinese Embassy in Vienna: http://at.china-embassy.gov.cn/det/xwdt/202304/t20230426_11066037.htm
All persons traveling to China are required to take a Nucleic Acid Test (PCR) OR Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) for COVID-19 within 48 hours prior to boarding/departure. The negative test result must be entered on the Health Declaration Form. The airline is no longer obliged to check the negative test results. These are randomly checked upon entry. If irregularities occur or symptoms appear upon entry, a test will be carried out by Chinese customs.
We would be happy to support you/your employees in organizing your next China visa.
Best regards
Yours OEVKG

Dear Sir or Madam,
Due to the massive volume of visa applications, the Chinese consular provider is currently experiencing a delay in the release of appointments (2-3 weeks) as well as longer waiting times for the submission of fingerprints.
Therefore, we kindly ask you to allow enough time for fingerprinting appointments as well as a general time buffer between application and departure for upcoming trips to China.
In addition, the consulate is currently very strict regarding the information in the visa application and requires that ALL items in the visa application are complete and correct. Incorrect and incomplete applications will result in rejection of the application.
Thank you and best regards

YOUR ÖVKG TEAM
Applicants who reside in TIROL, SALZBURG, OBERÖSTERREICH and VORARLBERG or whose employer is located in these federal provinces must submit the applications to the consular provider in Salzburg. The consular provider in Vienna no longer accepts applications from these western Austrian provinces.
Thank you and best regards
