What Is a China Tourist Visa Invitation Letter?


A China tourist visa invitation letter is an official supporting document issued by a licensed inbound travel agency that confirms your travel arrangements in China. It is submitted together with your visa application to show that your itinerary, accommodation and reception are arranged with a qualified local agency.

At Yajoon Travel, every private custom China tour and multi-city package includes a travel agency visa invitation letter, a full set of stamped application materials and an embassy-compliant itinerary — so you can focus on your trip instead of the paperwork. Standard documents are ready in 2–3 working days, and official group visa invitation letters are available for groups of 5 or more travelers.

Who Needs a Visa Invitation Letter for China?


A visa invitation letter is generally needed by travelers from countries that still require a visa to enter China, including many travelers from the United States, the United Kingdom, Pakistan, Kenya, Zimbabwe and other destinations. If you are planning a private tour, a family visit or a small group trip, our licensed inbound reception service provides the official visa supporting documents required for your China tourist visa application.

Requirements vary by nationality, so please consult the Chinese embassy or consulate in your country first to confirm which type of invitation letter you need. Some travelers only require an invitation letter from a licensed travel agency, while others must provide an official group travel invitation letter endorsed by the local Culture and Tourism Bureau.

Frequently Asked Questions


My group has fewer than 5 people. Can I get an official group invitation letter?

Per official regulations, an official group visa invitation letter requires a minimum of 5 travelers in the same group on a unified itinerary. Groups with fewer than 5 travelers are not eligible for an official group invitation letter. You may choose the option that matches your group size:
• If your group has 5+ travelers: book our multi-city small group tour or VIP custom tour to receive an official group visa invitation letter, with 10 working days for official review.
• If your group has fewer than 5 travelers: book our 1-day or multi-day custom tour to receive a full set of stamped travel agency supporting documents for your individual visa application, with documents ready in 2–3 working days.

Can I buy the visa invitation letter separately without booking a tour?

Per regulatory requirements, visa supporting documents are provided as part of our travel services and are not sold separately. You may book any travel package to receive the corresponding visa document support.

How long does it take to prepare the documents?

• Standard travel agency visa supporting documents (1-day & multi-day custom tour packages): ready within 2–3 working days after booking confirmation.
• Official group visa invitation letter (small group & VIP packages): requires official review, with a total processing time of approximately 10 working days.

Does this guarantee my visa will be approved?

Our documents are prepared strictly in line with embassy requirements to improve the completeness and credibility of your application. However, final visa approval is solely at the discretion of Chinese embassies and consulates. We cannot guarantee visa approval.

Can I change my travel dates after documents are issued?

One date revision is available before documents are finalized. Changes after official issuance will require re-submission for review, which may incur additional fees and extend processing time. Please contact our team for details.

What is the difference between an individual invitation letter and a group visa invitation letter?

An individual invitation letter refers to the travel agency visa supporting documents we provide with our 1-day and multi-day custom tours for 1 to 6 travelers, ready in 2–3 working days. A group visa invitation letter is an official document for groups of 5 or more travelers on a unified itinerary, and requires about 10 working days for official review.

Can a family of 3–4 travelers get visa supporting documents?

Yes. Families and small groups of 3–4 travelers can book our 1-day private tour or multi-day custom tour to receive a full set of stamped travel agency visa supporting documents for individual visa applications, ready in 2–3 working days. Official group invitation letters require 5 or more travelers.

Do you provide a stamped itinerary for my embassy interview?

Yes. Every package includes a stamped itinerary and reception confirmation prepared in line with embassy requirements, which you can present as supporting documents when applying for your China tourist visa.

What type of China visa invitation letter do I need?

Requirements differ by nationality and visa type, so please consult the Chinese embassy or consulate in your country first to confirm which type of invitation letter your case requires. Some travelers only need an invitation letter issued by a licensed travel agency, which is included with our 1-day and multi-day custom tours. Other countries require an official group travel invitation letter endorsed by the local Culture and Tourism Bureau, which requires a minimum of 5 travelers on a unified itinerary and is available with our small group and VIP packages.

What happens if my visa application is rejected?

Visa approval is solely at the discretion of Chinese embassies and consulates. We prepare all documents strictly in line with embassy requirements to improve completeness and credibility, but we cannot guarantee the outcome. If you need to re-apply, our team can help you prepare a new set of supporting documents.

How do I submit my passport details for the documents?

After booking confirmation, our team will send you a secure form to submit traveler passport details, travel dates and itinerary preferences. Your documents are then prepared based on this information within the stated processing time.
