How Foreigners Can Refer to the Canton Fair<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Canton Fair is a significant international trade event. For foreigners, there are several ways to refer to it, which can help them better understand the fair and seize business opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre – registration and Invitation Application<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Foreigners can pre – register through the official website of the Canton Fair (buyer.cantonfair.org.cn). If they are old – time purchasers who have participated in the fair offline before, they can directly log in with their original accounts or reset their passwords if forgotten. Then, they can apply for an invitation letter in the system. New purchasers need to register first, fill in relevant information such as name, company name, and purchase intention, apply for a purchaser’s certificate, and the invitation letter will be generated simultaneously. They can also complete the pre – registration through the Canton Fair APP or by following the instructions in the pre – registration module of the official email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visa Application<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After obtaining the invitation letter from the Canton Fair, foreigners can use it to apply for a Chinese visa. Usually, the “M” visa is the most common for business trips. They can apply for a visa at the Chinese embassy or consulate in their country, or entrust a local travel agency or visa agency to handle it. If they meet the requirements of the 72 – hour or 144 – hour transit visa – free policy, they can also enjoy the corresponding visa – free treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On – site Participation and Service Experience<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When arriving at the airport in Guangzhou, foreigners can use the dedicated channels for the Canton Fair set up by the border control, and get language – specific consultation and customs – clearance guidance from the multi – language service team. There are also special windows for applying for temporary entry permits, which can be processed quickly. Near the airport, there is a “Foreigners’ Facilitation Service Center” that provides various services. And if they have pre – registered, they can apply for certificates at the nearby certificate – processing points, with the fastest production time being only 30 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding Exhibits and Business Matching<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Canton Fair provides a variety of language – version purchaser’s guides on its official website. Foreigners can view exhibitor and exhibit information through the website, and can also publish their purchase needs on the online platform of the Canton Fair. The fair will organize professional personnel to provide customized business matching services for them, helping them find suitable suppliers and products. In addition, the Canton Fair also holds various promotion and supply – demand matching activities, and foreigners can participate in these activities to conduct in –depth exchanges with exhibitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Online Reference<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to on – site participation, foreigners can also refer to the Canton Fair online. During the fair, there are often live – streaming activities. Some foreign influencers will live – broadcast on – site, introducing the latest products and information. Foreigners can watch these live – streams to learn about the fair’s situation, which is especially convenient for those who cannot attend the fair in person due to various reasons. This “cloud” participation method can also effectively connect global buyers with Chinese suppliers.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
