Hello

My friend and I live in Suwon and we are planning a trip to China over the summer vacation. Im a UK national and she is from the US. I was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction to find some up to date visa info for the two of us. We are only looking to go for one week. The reason I am confused over the subject is because I heard a rumour the Chinese embassy in Seoul is no longer accepting visa applications in person due to the whole swine flu malarky. I heard that you have to go with an approved travel agency. If this is the case could anyone recommend an agency who speaks English?

I just booked a ticket with Xanadu http://www.xanadu.co.kr/eng/index.asp they speak English and take care of the visa for you.

Yes, your travel agent will get the visa for you. You'll have to pay for it (and your gf will get screwed on the price).

The Chinese embassy in Seoul hasn't accepted visa applications for quite a long time.
