Recently the demand for visas for Chinese residents has increased. Statistically, in the year of 2017, Canada received more than 500,000 applications from Chinese citizens. This amount has significantly expanded compared to the year of 2016. That’s why Canada was looking for new ways to support the growth in Chinese applications.

As a necessary measure, the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) opened 7 new Visa Application Centres in China last week. The opening ceremony took place in Nanjing. New centres were opened in cities of Chengdu, Hangzhou, Jinan, Kunming, Nanjing, Shenyang, and Wuhan. They join the existing network of VACs in Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong. Each Visa Application Centre offers support to applicants before, during and after their temporary resident visa application is assessed by an IRCC officer.

The new VACs will play an important role in improving economic relationships and cultural exchange between Canada and China.

Applicants may reach VAC directly or via AnyVisa office in Vancouver, BC where all your questions will be answered and our experts will make sure all the applications are complete and accurate.
