China Business Visa Validity, Fees & Processing Time

China Business Visa Validity, Fees & Processing Time

In 2025, the China Business Visa (M-Visa) remains a crucial travel document for Nepali entrepreneurs and investors seeking to explore trade, attend exhibitions, or meet business partners in China. The visa’s validity, fees, and processing time vary depending on the applicant’s travel purpose, number of entries requested, and previous travel record. Generally, the Chinese Embassy in Kathmandu issues single-entry visas valid for three months, allowing a stay of up to 30 days per visit. Applicants who frequently travel for business purposes can qualify for double-entry visas valid for up to six months, or multiple-entry visas valid for six months to one year, with each stay usually limited to 60 to 90 days. For first-time applicants, the embassy typically grants a single-entry visa, while multiple-entry visas are given to those with established trade relationships and consistent travel history between Nepal and China.

The visa fees for Nepali citizens applying through the Chinese Visa Application Service Center (CVASC), Rising Mall, Kamaladi, Kathmandu, range depending on entry type and processing speed. A single-entry business visa generally costs between NPR 12,000 and 14,000, a double-entry visa costs NPR 18,000 to 20,000, and a multiple-entry visa valid for six months to one year ranges from NPR 22,000 to 28,000. Applicants who need urgent processing can opt for express service (2–3 working days) or rush service (same-day or next-day), which typically costs an additional NPR 4,000 to 6,000. These fees cover both embassy and service center charges.

The processing time for a regular China Business Visa is generally four to seven working days, depending on the completeness of the documents and the embassy’s workload. However, applications with incomplete information, missing invitation letters, or unverified financial documents may experience delays. Therefore, applicants should ensure that their application includes a verified invitation letter or PU Letter (if required), valid passport, business registration documents, bank statements, flight and hotel bookings, and a recent photo that meets embassy standards.

From Architect of Nepal’s Open Economy to Alzheimer’s Struggle: The Rise, Influence and Controversy of Dr. Ram Sharan Mahat

From Architect of Nepal’s Open Economy to Alzheimer’s Struggle: The Rise, Influence and Controversy of Dr. Ram Sharan Mahat When Nepal entered a new democratic era after the 1990 People’s Movement (2046 BS), Girija Prasad Koirala—then a towering political personality—was preparing to lead the first democratic government. Although highly influential politically, Koirala was not known for economic expertise. In search of a capable economist who could design Nepal’s new economic framework, he initially approached Sukdev Shah, an economist based in the United States. According to political accounts, Koirala offered him the position of Finance Minister. But when Shah asked, “How much salary does a finance minister earn?”, Koirala reportedly became upset and hung up the phone—a revealing anecdote that has become part of Nepal’s political folklore.

Government Funds Hold Over Rs 40 Billion as Mismanagement Risks Emerge: Study Calls for Urgent Reform A government study has uncovered that more than Rs 40 billion remains parked across ten different employee-related funds managed by public institutions—raising concerns about financial discipline, transparency, and future liabilities.

Understanding the Habit Loop: How Everyday Actions Shape Our Lives

Understanding the Habit Loop: How Everyday Actions Shape Our Lives In modern life, personal success, health, happiness, and even our identity are deeply rooted in the habits we repeat each day. Whether a person becomes physically fit or struggles with poor health, whether one feels fulfilled or unhappy, or whether one achieves professional success or falls behind—the underlying driver is the same: habits. What individuals think, how they act, the routines they follow, and the behaviors they repeat ultimately shape the life they lead. Yet, while most people desire change, few understand the scientific mechanism that governs habit formation. A widely accepted behavioral framework—now popularized through scientific literature and the bestselling book Atomic Habits—explains how habits function through a simple four-step cycle: cue, craving, response, and reward. Understanding this loop, experts say, is essential not only for building good habits but also for eliminating harmful ones.
