For those who need a visa to travel in China, we can issue an invitation letter or a visa support letter for your visa application.

1. Invitation letter

This is issued by the conference organization committee, which is an ordinary conference invitation letter. This is a quick and easy method, and the experiences indicate that this is good enough for most situations and most locations for applying for the visa. 

You may request this invitation letter by email (His.Conf@gmail.com) with "general invitation letter request" in title and provide the following:

(1)Your name, organization, birthday, gender, and passport number.

(2)Your registration number and payment proof

2Official Visa support letter

This is issued by the Foreign Affair Office of Fudan University (the official sponsoring host institution of HIS2016), which is a formal official visa support letter. In case where the visa appication policy is rather restrictive at the Chinese embassy/consulate in your region/country, we suggest you choose this method.

Please kindly contact His.Conf@gmail.com with "visa letter request" in title and provide the following:

(1) Your scanned passport bio page;

(2) The location of the Chinese consulate to which you will submit your visa application

(3) Your registration number and payment proof
