Q: How much will cost us to live in the Netherlands?

Hey,there,folks.Victoria here needs your help.

Our company is planing to go to the trade show in the Netherlands.I want to kown how much will cost two people to go and back by the air plane?The exhibition time is from Feb 2th-Feb 7th,2014.so I guess we may want to stay there around 7 days.How much will cost us to live in a hotel(Not a very expensive one,nor a very cheap one,we need two single rooms.) in Utrecht,Netherlands?How much will cost us on the food and transportation fees as well for 7 days?

The trade show company will send us the inviting letter for us to process the visa applying.I may go with the boss's daughter,she is rich and a married 31 woman,so it will be no problem for her to go.But I am single and only 26,the only thing can help me with the visa applying is my company,will it be a problem for me to apply the business visa?How long it will take me to get my visa since I applied?

Your soon repry will be highly appreciated.

 

Sinceresly yours,

Victoria fairy tale

www.hotels.com works well for this. 

Expect to spend at least €15 per meal, and usually a trade show area will be more. 

A taxi i Holland costs about €5 in starting fee and a couple of € per km. 

Holland has horrible traffic, pick a location near the exhibition area or be prepared to spend a lot of time on transport. 

I did take the train from Schipol Airport (Amsterdam) to Utrecht some years ago, can't remember how much it cost, it's the easiest way to get to Utrecht. 

 

Generally. Prepare to be shocked.

expect to spend at least 20000 RMB in total for everything i would say.

2 air tickets will be already 10000 RMB

 

the visa issue is a different story and no matter what it is in the hand of the embassy, with a company might be better if the company is not some backdoor shit.

Just a tip to help you save money while traveling in Europe : don't use taxis Tongue It's relatively cheap in China, many people can afford them. Not in Europe, taxi are much, much more expensive. Use public transportation, you will save *LOTS* of money, and they usually are modern and convenient. Most major cities have internet websites detailing the public transportation networks and the fees.

PS Notable improvement in the writing of your post. That's great Wink

I like this Vicky a hell of a lot better than the other one, Money aside also watch what you eat and drink also do it in moderation , get onto the trade fare people and get some accomadation guides from them as they will have some approved suppliers . Do a bit of web surfing for the area and plan a day trip however the event organiser may also have some discounted tours at their disposal . do it right and you will have a ball

I kind of understand why this post set off warning bells with the admin, but there's no obvious (commercial) benefit to victoria through the question or replies, so I think it's genuine... hmm...

philbravery:

Because we are travel agents!

 

Really? Just check out any flight check website for the flights. And then go to a hotel check website for hotels.

 

For the other parts, you'll need around 30-50 euro's per day depending on how far you are away from the venue.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
