Which describes your China trip?
Pick the closest one. We start from there. Thai passports may not need a visa at all; we check first.
I am Thai and want a longer stay
You need more than 30 days, or you have used most of your 90 days.
My passport needs a visa
Your nationality is not covered by visa-free entry.
I am visiting family or doing business
Relatives or a company in China are inviting you.
What gets easier when we prepare your China visa
Your days are counted right
Thai passports get 30 days per entry, capped at 90 in any 180. The cap catches people out.
The right category first time
A tourist visa where a family or business visa fits makes the application slow.
Your invitation done right
We tell relatives or companies in China exactly what their letter must contain.

What customers say about working with us
I have used their service twice. Thai Kru made my visa process so much easier, it was worth every cent. In fact on the first trip the advice they gave me saved me money.
After reaching out to about four local visa agencies in Thailand, Thai Kru stood out as the most legitimate and honest... They kept in touch and explained everything.
If you are looking for assistance with getting your visa and want someone who is responsive and helpful, then look no further than Thai Kru! Everything went so smoothly throughout the entire process.

- Incomplete invitation. We give your contacts the exact contents.

China visa questions
Does my passport need a Chinese visa?
Thai passports can enter for tourism for up to 30 days per entry, capped at 90 days in any 180. Most other nationalities need a visa.
I am a foreigner living in Thailand. Am I covered?
Visa-free entry follows your passport, not where you live. We check your nationality.
How does the 90-day rule work?
On any day, count back 180 days and add up your days in China. The total must stay within 90.
I want to go for 45 days. Can you get me that?
That is longer than a visa-free entry allows, so you need a visa. We find the category that fits.
Can I extend a visa-free stay in China?
No. It cannot be extended after you arrive.
Can I be refused entry even with a visa?
Yes. Border officers decide entry. A consistent file helps.
