Hello (@stankovic),
I hope you are well.
I was wondering if anyone ever received an answer to stankovic's visa question above. I am in the same situation now and I’m trying to figure out the right approach. I am in Switzerland for work until the end of the month at which point I will be going to China.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

I am a U.S. citizen who will be working in Zurich during Sept. and Oct. Then I will be going to Beijing in early Nov. on a business visit to Microsoft and several Universities. Can I get a Chinese visa while I am in Zurich even though I am a US citizen?
