Multiple-Entry Visas Suspended
9th April 2008
The Associated Press is reporting that, according to travel agents, Chinese authorities are no longer issuing multiple-entry visas to foreigners. Additionally, visa processing in Hong Kong has been slowed down. While this might not be a big problem for visitors only coming to China for the Olympics, it could be a massive headache for those who need to travel for business in the region. Read the full story on the IHT site. Have you been affected by the changes in visa policy? How do you anticipate handling the situation?

Laura,
I reported this 6 weeks ago for the first time, and there are a number of people who have commented on some solutions.
I have also been reporting that it is possible that China may shut a significant amount of manufacturing down for the Olympics, and transportation as well. so, hopefully you will get this message out as well as it may create significant headaches for more than a few business travelers.
