Travel

IMPORTANT NOTE! Attendees from outside China will require a travel VISA, and are strongly encouraged to apply early as occasionally delays of up to two months may occur. Travelers can apply for an L (tourist) or F (non-business visit) VISA. The L Tourist option is the simplest, and valid if even a brief time is allocated for sight-seeing. If the sole purpose of the trip is the conference, attendees can apply for the F visa, in which case a letter of invitation from a Chinese entity will be required – please contact kaimei.luo@dukekunshan.edu.cn to obtain this letter and for any further information.
