Sao Tome: China embassy once more accepting applications for student visas
By LUSA
China’s embassy in Sao Tome and Principe on Tuesday announced that it is once more accepting applications for student visas for people from the country wishing to study at universities in China.
In a statement, the embassy said that the move covers both new students and those already enrolled in universities in China, but who until now have been taking remote classes.
The embassy added that family members of students from Sao Tome and Principe may also apply for “residence for companionship” or visitor visas.
As of Wednesday, China will also allow the entry “without the need to apply for a visa” of Sao Tome and Principe nationals holding business travel cards from the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. The aim, according to the embassy, is to “promote the international exchange of staff.”
The announcement comes four days after embassy officials met young people from Sao Tome graduating from universities in China.
China’s government has previously granted around 50 scholarships a year to students from Sao Tome.
In December, the two countries signed an agreement as part of China’s Belt and Road initiative, which foresees cooperation in areas such as infrastructure, economy, trade, culture and the training of human resources.
China has kept its borders closed to the overwhelming majority of foreign students since 2020, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
