The questions i have with trans-sib folk are....i plan to apply for my chinese visa in moscow,at chinese consulate/embassy....anyone have any experiance of this? And again, planning to get my mongolian visa in irkusk, there is a consulate there, again anyone know much about this? I have british-australian nationality, and im looking for a short visa to mongolia and a standard visa to china, im hoping with both they wont be too expensive and will only take a few days. be nice to hear peoples experiance and advice with this cheers Owen

It was a straightforward process - all he had to do was fill out the application form and give a couple of photos. No other documents were needed. But I think it took 5 days processing and I'm not sure if there's a faster option. He got his Mongolian visa in Moscow as well and it was also very straightforward (and quicker). I don't imagine it would be any more difficult in Irkutsk.
