Chengdu Visa Application Centre relocation


From Monday 5 December 2016, the Visa Application Centre (VAC) in Chengdu will operate from a new location. The Chengdu VAC is operated by VFS Global and they are taking the opportunity, with the current lease due to expire in February 2017, to move to larger premises in order to meet their business needs and respond to market growth.

The VAC is shared with the Australian Department of Immigration and Border Protection. VFS Global is moving all Chengdu VACs to the new building to enable better management. A ‘premium lounge’ facility will also be available to all Immigration New Zealand (INZ) applicants, as a value-added service.

The new location – 2F, No.11, 4th Section of South Renmin Road, Wuhou District, Chengdu 610017, Sichuan, P. R. China – is in a prominent location in the city.

A communications plan has been prepared which will be managed locally by the Beijing Area Office, in conjunction with the Commercial Relationships Team. INZ and VFS Global are working to ensure any disruption is kept to a minimum. The Office and Fee Finder tool as well as both the INZ and VFS Global websites will be updated accordingly.
