Questions and Answers
for the China Trip 2025
Hi, everyone,
For your convenience I have created this documents for your reference regarding to the China Trip August 2025 and the Training Camp July 2025 as the following:
Visa applications and entry clearance at custom:
The Training Base of Chen Style Tai Chi Centre UK is our official business in China. We have been approved as a valid and recognized invitation person and organizer in China so you can put us down as invitation body in China.
To simplify the visa application form please apply for F – visitor visa as the purpose of Cultural Study and it’s better to say it’s yourself to pay for the Trip on the form otherwise so many questions afterwards. I am the invitation person in China and my address is: Xingchen Building, Qingshan Zu, Hongqi Cun, Changcheng Xiang, Yuhu Qu, Xiangtan City, Hunan Province, China. Postcode: 411105; Telephone is +86 158 73216908
Don’t mention about the travel itinerary and only put training and stay in my address in China. Otherwise you have to fill in every single places and transportation on the Trip…. It’s a very complicated process.
30 countries are free of visa to visit China for 30 days so please check it online.
Flights:
The cheapest flights price is coming up around middle of June so we will keep eyes on it every day. All people sign up the China Trip can pay for the Trip includes the flights then I will take care of it so leave you peace of mind or excludes the flights then you can sort it out yourself. The price is £600 different. Please send your passport photo image copy to me.

Could you please send me your passport images for the trip? I will issue an invitation letter as official receipt for your visa application if applicable and entry clearance at the custom in China.
Tips for the Trip:
Please apply for two years multiple entry visa with 60 days per stay and I believe the price is the same but it makes more convenient for the Trip and the future visit if you wish to return to China next year. My contact number in China on the invitation letter is very important for you so please add it on your phone.
Ireland, Spanish people and others who are no need a visa to visit China please keep your invitation letter for the entry clearance at the Customs in China.
WeChat is an important App for everyone travelling in China and it’s Chinese version of Facebook+PayPal+Uber+Bus Pass+Tube Pass+Bank card all in one. No cash and card is needed in China once you have a valid WeChat and Alipay.
WhatApps is NOT working in China so we have to move onto Wechat to stay in contact during the trip so move over and join us on WeChat group is recommended.
T-shirt for the Trip
Everyone will receive two T-shirts for the trip and two colours are allowed. We made to order so please select your own favourite colours and size. Please be away the Chinese size is one size smaller than UK and Europe size. I normally wear M but I need to order L for my China Trip T-shirt.
