Understanding the Visa

What is the China Business Visa?

The China Business Visa (M Visa) is for general business travel to China — not tied to a single event like the Canton Fair. It's commonly used for:

  1. Sourcing trips and factory visits

  2. Business negotiations and meetings

  3. Ongoing trade and supplier relationships

  4. Frequent business travellers needing multi-entry access

Pricing Depends on Travel History

₦600,000 – ₦1,500,000

The more you've travelled to China before, the less document-building your application needs — so the fee is lower. Frequent travellers (twice in the last 5 years) can also access a 1-year multi-entry visa.

DOCUMENT CHECKLIST

China Business Visa Requirements

Four categories. Returning applicants must show their previous China visa — this is what qualifies you for the lower-priced tiers.

Main Documents

  1. International passport

  2. Passport photograph (white background)

  3. Previous China visa — required if you're a returning applicant

Proof of Finances

  1. Personal bank statement (6 months)

Proof of Business (Business Owners)

  1. Complete CAC documents

  2. Company's letter of introduction

Proof Of Employment (Employees)

  1. Employer's CAC

  2. Business bank statement (not compulsory)

Not sure your documents are ready?

A poorly presented bank statement or missing CAC documents are the most common — and avoidable — reasons for delay.

THE DESTINATION

Why Nigerians Do Business in China

China remains the world's manufacturing hub — here's why Nigerian business owners keep coming back for more than just a single trade fair.

1

Access Global Manufacturing Hubs

Visit factories directly in cities like Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Yiwu, and Shanghai across nearly every product category.

2

Competitive Sourcing & Pricing

Negotiate directly with manufacturers for better pricing than working through third-party agents.

3

Expand Trade Partnerships

Build long-term supplier relationships that go beyond a single fair or a single order.

4

Explore New Markets & Products

Discover new product lines and trends before they become widely available in Nigeria.

5

Strengthen Import & Export Operations

Regular visits help you manage quality control, logistics, and supplier relationships more closely.

THE APPLICATION

Why China Business Visa applications get delayed

China visa applications for business travellers can be strict — we make sure your application is embassy-ready the first time.

1

Missing Previous Visa Proof

Returning applicants must show their previous China visa — without it, your application defaults to first-time pricing and requirements.

2

Poor Bank Statement Presentation

Your statement needs consistent transactions, a healthy balance, and proper salary or business inflow.

3

Missing CAC Documents

Business documents are compulsory for business travellers — missing CAC paperwork is a common, avoidable delay.

4

Incorrect Online Form or Wrong Visa Category

Any mismatch between your form and your documents, or selecting the wrong visa category, can lead to delays.
