Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about preparing for the 140th Canton Fair 2026.

1. How do I get my Canton Fair Buyer Badge (IC Card)?
First-time buyers can pre-register on the official Canton Fair Buyer E-Service Platform (BEST). Once you book with Colombo City Drive, our team handles your official invitation letter and pre-registration. You can then collect your official badge at the airport or designated hotel registration desks in Guangzhou without waiting in long queues at the Pazhou Complex.
2. What type of visa is required for Sri Lankan citizens?
Sri Lankan nationals generally apply for a Chinese Business Visa (M-Visa) or Tourist Visa (L-Visa). The official Canton Fair Invitation Letter obtained through our tour registration serves as the primary supporting document for your business visa application at the Chinese Visa Application Service Facility in Colombo.
3. Can I attend multiple phases or combine my trip with Yiwu?
Yes, absolutely! We offer customizable multi-phase packages that cover both Phase 1 and Phase 2, or Phase 2 and Phase 3. During the 3-day intermission between phases, we organize guided wholesale market tours in Guangzhou, factory visits in Foshan/Shenzhen, or domestic high-speed train connections to the world-famous Yiwu International Trade City.
4. How will I travel between the hotel and the Pazhou Complex?
Our tour packages include dedicated daily private coaches that transport you directly from our hotel entrance to the Pazhou Complex in the morning, and return you back in the evening. This eliminates the stress of finding taxis or navigating crowded metro stations during peak fair hours.
5. How do I make payments and confirm my seat?
You can confirm your seat by making an initial deposit via bank transfer or at our Colombo office (Bookingmart Holidays / Key Travels, No. 297-1/1, George R. De Silva Mawatha, Colombo 13). Early registration is strongly recommended due to high demand for flights and 4-star hotels in Guangzhou during Canton Fair seasons.
