Post subject: One yr visa for Americans..

PRESS RELEASE JAN 6.2005

Beginning January 15, 2005, the United States Embassy and four consulates in China, as well as United States embassies and consulates around the world, will begin issuing to otherwise qualified Chinese citizens, who wish to visit the United States temporarily for business (B-1) or pleasure (B-2), visas that are valid for 12 months and multiple entries. The previous maximum validity of U.S. visas for these purposes was six months.

On a reciprocal basis, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also agreed to issue to American citizens visiting China on temporary business and tourism visas valid for the same 12 months and for multiple entries. While China and the United States will, in principle, issue maximum validity visas to each other’s citizens, on a case-by-case basis each side may limit the period of validity and number of entries as required by law and regulation.
