China launch group visa for Nigerians

The Chinese government has launched a group visa programme for Nigerians who wish to travel to the Asian country as a team for business or tourism.

However, Chinese Government granted Bravo International Tour Service of Beijing, an international travel agency the exclusive rights to process the group Visa.

Bravo International Tour Service’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mr Daniel Yang, stated this in Lagos at the weekend while signing a deal with its Nigerian partner, 1860 Travels.

“The group visa requires a minimum of five persons. Four persons cannot obtain a group visa; they must be at least five persons,” he said.

Yang said the deal with 1860 Travels would increase cultural communications between China and Nigeria through a new product or brand called ‘Tours2China’.

The Director urged travellers not to abuse the opportunity by eloping in China, otherwise the Chinese government could shut down the programme.

1860 Travels Managing Director, Mr Olusina Daodu, assured potential users of the visa that measures were in place to make the product succeed and avoid its abuse.

“Nigerians will now be able to travel with group tourist visa. If you want to go on leisure, it affords you the opportunity and if you also want to do a little bit of business, it also affords you the opportunity.

“That is why the itineraries put together are structured in a way that it allows you do your business and have some leisure time while you are there.”

The scheme is set to commence by August 1
