According to the notice of the Chinese Embassy in Finland, from Monday 31 March 2025, applicants must log in to the website of the Chinese Visa Application Service Center (www.visaforchina.cn), complete the online "Visa Application Form" and upload the visa application materials. From 31 March 2025, all paper application forms will no longer be accepted.

Special reminder: Before submitting your passport and application materials to the visa application center, please confirm that your application status is "Waiting for Passport Submission", and you have received a confirmation email and printed the "Visa Application receipt".

Important Tips:

Personnel holding diplomatic and official passports and important official visiting groups to China must also fill in the application form online and upload application materials through the visa center website. When the application status changes to "Waiting for Passport Submission" and you have received a confirmation email, the applicant can bring the printed "Visa Application receipt " to the Chinese Embassy in Finland to submit the visa application materials.
