Planning a trip to China from Kansas? Good news — you don't have to travel to a consulate to get your visa. Your application is handled by the Chinese Consulate-General in Chicago, and we take care of that part for you, by mail, from anywhere in Kansas.
Prefer to hand the whole thing off? apply for a China visa from the USA, and we take care of the review, in-person submission, and return shipping.
Which Chinese consulate covers Kansas?
China routes every application by your home state — not your birthplace or where you fly out of. Kansas falls under the Chinese Consulate-General in Chicago. Your address sets it; send it to the wrong jurisdiction and it bounces straight back — one of the most common, most avoidable delays. We know the routing cold, whether you're in Wichita, Overland Park, and Topeka.
No trip to the consulate required
The consulate doesn't take mailed applications from individuals anymore, and you can't just walk in without an appointment. That's the whole reason we're here. You mail us your passport, we coordinate the in-person submission and the trip back where available, and you stay home in Kansas the whole time.
How it works
Complete the intake form at chinavisa.getmypassports.com — pick your service and pay.
Ship us your passport with the prepaid FedEx label we send you after reviewing your form.
We submit it in person at the consulate — they don't accept mailed applications, so that's the part you're hiring us for.
Your passport comes home — tracked FedEx back to your door once the authorities finish their decision.
The Chinese government makes the approval call and sets the timeline — we just make sure your paperwork shows up right the first time.
2026 is a good year to go
Two things are working in your favor: China cut the visa fee to $140 and dropped fingerprinting for most short-term visits (tourist, business, family) — both in place through December 31, 2026. For most Kansas travelers, that's a simpler, cheaper application than it's been in years.
