Hi,

I'm thinking about going to visit my mom who's going to china at the end of november. i'd have to get a few days off so i'm not too sure if it's possible yet. How do I go about getting a visa to china? how long does it take and how much is it?
i would be going to hong kong, does that make a difference?

thanks!

CHinese visas depend on nationality, ranging from 30000 to 90000. Also, the times range from that day (more money) to the usual 4-5 days. I don't know if that can be used in Hong Kong though.

You don't need a visa for HongKong. You will get a 90 day stamp on entry.
