The Foreign Family Visa is designed for expatriates who are accompanying their loved ones in China for employment or employment, foreign couples who are married to Chinese nationals, and foreign passport holders who are eager to visit their loved ones in China. In China, there are two common types of visas issued specifically for visiting relatives, namely the S visa and the Q visa
S visa: It is the family accompanying visa, so that foreign relatives who work and study in China can obtain this visa and come to China for reunion.
Q visa: It is a family reunion visa, which allows foreigners who have relatives of Chinese nationality in China to obtain this visa and come to China to meet.
