  • Common rejection reasons for China applicants: incomplete or inconsistent documents, insufficient funds, lack of a clear itinerary or purpose, and failure to meet health or security requirements; ensure your application is accurate and complete.
  • VFS/BLS vs direct embassy: verify whether Nauru uses a dedicated visa portal or a local embassy/consulate for applications; follow the channel specified on the official website.
  • Travel advisories and notes: check both Chinese and Nauruan government advisories for the latest travel and entry requirements; ensure you have any required vaccinations or health documentation.
  • Extension options inside Nauru: visa extensions, if allowed, require applying to Nauru Immigration before your current visa expires; approval is not guaranteed and depends on circumstances.
