Has anyone recently applied for the Z visa through the Chinese Consulate in Brisbane, Australia? I'm wondering if they want to see the completed Physical Exam Record for Foreigner as part of your paperwork when you apply. The website and application form make no mention of it.

In Inner Mongolia, in Liaoning, in Sichuan and in Zheijiang, you are now REQUIRED to complete a medical examination within the province after arrival. Foreign medical examinations are no longer accepted in these provinces. Any medical examination submitted as part of the process must be less than six months old and must certify that the holder is free of any pernicious and contagious diseases, i.e., AIDS, syphllis, venereal diseases, diptheria, typhoid. It is routine practice to complete the medical examination before obtaining the Foreign Expert Certificate. In Zheijiang Province, the Government has established a new, very clean and ultramodern Foreigners' Medical Center. They are quite efficient.

I guess I was just wanting specifics from someone who has recently applied through the Brisbane Chinese Consulate. From what I've read, the requirement for the medical form upon Z Visa application seems to be at the whim of each consulate. As opposed to the requirements for Residence permit once you are in the PRC, which is non-negotiable. In my case, at least.

A doctor will check you in China also.
