[News]
updated on Dec. 10, 2017 - A new policy will
officially go into effect on Feb. 28, 2018. All foreigners
will be required to submit their application to renew their
work permits 30 days ahead of the expiration date, according
to a notice issued by the State Administration of Foreign
Experts (SAFEA) on Dec. 7, 2017. Failure to submit the application
prior to the 30 day cutoff date means you'll be denied renewal
and will be forced to start the work permit application process
from the very beginning.
According to our
experiences, 45-90 days ahead of the expiration date, you
can begin the work visa extension.
Hereafter it is
the FAQs on China work visa extension .
How can i know
if the new ompany is qualified to hire me or not?
Some companies are NOT qualified to hire you, e.g. a Chinese
company who doesn't have the social insurance certificate.
You youself can check with the HR staff or we can help you
communicate with the HR staff.
Do I need to
re-apply the Z visa in HK if I worked before in other city
and moved to Beijing?
No, you don't need to go to HK. Please prepare the transfer
or cancellation letter by the local Labor Bureau where you
worked before. You can get a new Foreigner's
Work Permit in Beijing and in turn a new residence permit
issued in Beijing.
Do I need the
no-criminal record certificate if I worked before out of Beijing?
No, you don't need to provide the police clearance certificate.
But you need to provide the original Bachelor Degree certificate
(or above).
