8.  The name of the nearest Chinese embassy for you to pick up Z visa.

Note 1: If you do not have a criminal record check, you must apply for this immediately. The process varies from county to country and can take 1-3 weeks. We cannot apply for this on your behalf, only you can apply for this. American citizens should apply for a local authority check, no need to be FBI check. British Citizens can apply from Disclosure Scotland. A criminal record check is valid for use if it is within 6 months of the date last issued. If your current criminal record check is older than 6 months you will need a new one. 

Step 2:  Authenticate these documents in Chinese embassy:

1.Criminal record check 


2.Degree certificate 


3.TEFL/TESOL certificate (some provinces)

Step 3: Book an appointment with your nearest consulate/embassy.

You can either personally attend or use a third party agent (for British citizens we also have cooperated visa agent) to post your passport and papers to the embassy/consulate. The embassy/ consulate will keep your passport for 3-6 days. Once you collect your passport with your Z visa inside, you are ready to fly!
