Visa Information
China now offers visa-free entry to citizens of several countries including America, Canada, France, Germany, UK, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Malaysia, Thailand, Korea, Japan, and Singapore. Additionally, new measures have been implemented to optimize visa procedures. This makes it significantly easier for overseas visitors from these nations to attend WOCA 2026.
A tourist visa
A tourist visa is the fastest and cheapest way to enter China and participate in a trade show. The validity of a tourist visa is generally 30 days. Most tourist visas are available without formal invitation letters. Itinerary, flight and accommodation reservations will be enough. However, tourist visas are sometimes very hard to get and even unavailable in some countries. Please confirm with the Chinese Embassy of your country in advance.
Business visas
Business visas are more complex and require a formal business invitation. We thus suggest starting an application in advance. World of Concrete Asia can assist with this step of the application. Please note that visa processing requires a minimum of one week. For invitation letters, kindly contact our authorized partner agency.
About Invitation Letter
For the visa invitation letter, please complete your pre-registration first. After submitting the questionnaire, you can download the standard invitation letter directly from the main page.
If you require an invitation letter issued with official government authorization, or if the standard version is not accepted by your local Chinese embassy, please contact our designated official travel agency—WOCA Cooperative—for further assistance.
