Information required for visas for Chinese in Ecuador to the United States

citizens of third countries living in China can apply for American visas in China, and the required application materials vary according to the types of visas.

If you need to apply for a business/tourist visa in the United States, you should pay an application fee of US$ 16 and submit the following materials:

1. Electronic application form for non-immigrant visa (DS-16).

2. A valid passport for travel to the United States must be valid for at least six months beyond the scheduled stay in the United States (except for countries with special agreements that enjoy exemption). If the passport contains more than one person, each visa applicant needs to submit a separate application.

3. one (1) photo of 2 inches by 2 inches (5.1cm by 5.1cm) taken in the last six months.

4. If the visa is issued, a visa reciprocity fee may be required, depending on the nationality of the applicant.

in addition to the above materials, the applicant should also present an interview appointment letter to prove that an interview has been made from this service channel. The applicant can also provide other supporting documents to the visa officer.

Usually, the consulate advises the applicant to apply for a visa in his country of nationality or residence. Anyone with legal status in China can apply for a visa in China. However, when choosing the application place, the applicant should not only consider the convenience, or postpone the interview in the residential area. More careful consideration should also be made, such as which consulate jurisdiction can better prove that it is firmly binding.
