China multiple entry Visa / EU Vaccine certification
China multiple entry Visa / EU Vaccine certification
Not sure if this belongs in here, or better into the "Rest of the world" part (@mods: simply move as you think).
Simple task: I need a multiple entry visa for China for business purposes.
Which had been an easy and straight forward process in the past, is getting now a complex issue: The embassy here in Phnom Penh is known for issuing single entry only, even if multiple is requested or required. It happens, that I will go to Germany in September, so I thought, that I can apply here. Can, but they require my EU vaccine certificate QR code - which I don't have, and which I won't get, since Sinovac is not recognized in EU. So I have the ironic situation to be vaccinated with Chinese stuff, but can't travel to China, because it is not recognized in EU. Hard to beat that stupidity. Anyway, anyone any idea, how to get around all that? I already had the idea to apply in Bangkok, but our office there told me, I don't need to try, they won't issue me the visa (I still wait for the answer of my "why not" question).

Driving on Cambodian roads is just like playing a classic arcade top scroller. The only difference is a force feedback controller, the limitation to only one life and the inability to restart, once Game Over
Re: China multiple entry Visa / EU Vaccine certification
If I'm not mistaken, you need to be a resident in Thailand to be allowed to apply for a Chinese visa in Bangkok.
That might not be the case for all visa types, but since you're after a multi-entry business visa, I don't think you can get one in Bangkok if you enter Thailand as a tourist.
Re: China multiple entry Visa / EU Vaccine certification
Thanks Alex, that looks like the answer to the "why not" question. Actually, I would have no issues to enter Thailand on a business visa, since our company has a branch there, however it wont solve the problem of not being a resident.
Further googleing told me, for a multiple visa, I need previous visa and entry into China within 12 or 36 months (depending which visa agency you ask, but irrelevant for me, since I have neiter). There seems to be a one year business visa as well, but here 2 previous (business) visa (and entries) are required + a letter from the Chinese Provincial Government.
I guess this is the revenge for making it hard for Chinese to go to EU. In contrast to Singaporean citizens, which got recently granted to go to China for 2 weeks visa free

might be easier to slip over to HK on the ferry as I had to do renew there and head back but my office was in Shenzhen so no biggy depends where you have to be in China its a big place

I found this link related to that:

It reads quite promising. I think getting a single entry visa here in Phnom Penh, then do the visa run to Hong Kong sounds like a plan. Thanks a lot
