The demand for Chinese visas has grown rapidly in recent years. To provide a better service for visa applicants, the Chinese Embassy in India, following the success of the visa centres of other countries, decided to introduce a Chinese Visa Application Service Centre (CVASC) in 2008 and this is introduced to Mumbai by the Chinese Consulate General in March, 2009.
Operated by VFS Global Services Pvt. Ltd., CVASC is a commercial entity completely independent from the Chinese Embassy or the Consulate General, neither its visa office, nor part of it, nor its subordinate.
CVASC is responsible for receiving visa applications for visit to mainland China from ordinary passport holders who are Indian citizens and citizens of other countries possessing Indian permanent residence or work permits, collecting visa fees on behalf of the Chinese Embassy or the Chinese Consulate General and returning processed visa applications.
