Dear Mr ............,
We are mindful of the wish of Hong Kong residents who are foreign nationals to have continued convenience when travelling to and from the Mainland for business activities and have conveyed the views of the Hong Kong business community to the Mainland authorities. According to the HKSAR Government's understanding, there is no change in China's opening up policy and foreigners are welcome. Mainland authorities has revealed that the current visa arrangements are conducive to creating a safe and comfortable environment for visitors on the Mainland. The Commissioner's Office of the Foreign Ministry in HKSAR has adopted all necessary measures to facilitate visa application of foreign nationals in Hong Kong. The multiple-entry visas are still available. Applicants are required to provide the Hong Kong ID card, an original Visa Notification Form issued by the relevant authorities, and supporting documents indicating business relations (such as business licenses, contracts, etc.). Applications will be considered case by case. Should you require further details of the application requirements, you may wish to seek their advice direct (e-mail : fmcovisa_hk@mfa.gov.cn). Thank you very much for your e-mail. Yours faithfully
