Visa application

You can apply for the visa in your local Chinese embassy or consulate, and following materials are needed:

1. Passport.

2. Admission letter of Hebei University (original).

3. Visa application form (JW202).

Do make sure that your letter of admission and your JW202 form is handed back to you together with your passport after obtaining your Chinese visa. You will need these documents to apply for your Residence Permit after your arrival in Baoding.

International Students who will be studying in China are required to obtain a Student Visa, also termed as ‘X’ Visa.

Important: The Student Visa/’X’ Visa will only be valid for 30 days after your arrival. You must apply for a Residence Permit within these 30 days in order to obtain a legal status in China at Baoding Police Station. You are discouraged from arriving in China in a head of time due to the short time limit of your visa. Furthermore, you are not eligible to apply for a Residence Permit until you are a registered student of HBU, after the day of registration.

Packing for Your Trip

We suggest students to pack only the essentials and also to pack as lightly as possible. Keep in mind that most things, ranging from stationeries and household items to computers, can be purchased in Baoding. We recommend that you purchase your daily necessities (such as paper folders, mirrors…etc) in Baoding after you have settled in, as you will then have a better idea of what you actually need.

If possible, do consider packing with you a towel and a set of sheets from home. You might need them to “settle-down” with on the day you arrived in Baoding.

We strongly suggest students bring along the things that will make them feel at home, such as posters, photos and cultural items from your country. These mementos from home may help make you feel comfortable in your home away from home at Baoding and also in minimizing cultural shocks as well as homesickness.

Here are some recommended interactive websites that can help you with preparing your packing list:
