As part of your China work visa, we provide a full China Employment Visa medical service. This includes:
China employment visa medical
One of our GMC certified doctors will perform a physical examination, blood pressure, blood tests and an ECG. You will also have a Chest X-ray. Although we cannot guarantee either a male or a female doctor, you do have the right to have a chaperone present during the examination. Please note; the part of the examination required as part of the China visa medical is intimate, such as visual inspection of the external genitalia.
A full medical examination
These consist of the following: HIV, syphilis, liver function tests, Hepatitis B serology and Blood group. Either a doctor or nurse will do these at the same time as your medical examination.
Blood tests
An ECG is a test that records the activity of your heart, monitoring the rate and rhythm - it’s pain free and quick. For your convenience one of our doctors or nurses will do this at the same time as your visa medical examination.
ECG
A chest X-ray is required and will need to take place at a local hospital. We’ll arrange this appointment for you and make sure it goes as smoothly as possible. Please note this may be subject to change and an alternative provider may be used for the chest x-ray. You’ll get to choose your appointment time. Their opening times are 9 AM to 7 PM weekdays and 9 AM to 12 PM on Saturdays. You don’t need to pay anything to Spire, as Travel Klinix covers this cost. This will be performed at: Spire Parkway Hospital, 1 Damson and Parkway Solihull, West Midlands B91 2PP Telephone number: (0845) 850 1451
Chest X-ray
The China visa medical costs £539, inclusive of all tests. (This is subject to the Chest X-ray being performed at the Spire Parkway Hospital, Solihull. Other locations can be arranged at additional cost). A China employer visa medical is £399 without a Chest X-ray.

Please allow 7 working days to receive your China visa medical report. We'll have to wait 3 - 5 working days for the results of your blood test and chest X-ray, and only after receiving these results are we able to issue the medical report.
This depends on a number of factors, such as location, duration of your stay and your activities. We can conduct a careful travel risk assessment and make recommendations on the vaccinations that you might need. There’s normally a consultation charge for this but as you're already having a medical examination, the cost of the travel consultation is free and you’ll only pay for any vaccinations you receive.
This can vary and is subject to change, so we’d advise you to contact the Chinese consulate directly for their latest guidelines.
