Foreigners Apply for Work Visa
Important: Holding a Z Visa is the only way to work legally in China.
Since 1 April 2017, foreigners that work in China has been divided into 3 classes: Class A (high-level talents), Class B (professional personnel), Class C (foreigners who are nontechnical or service workers hired on a temporary/seasonal basis).
There are several criteria that are used to rate the applicant: salary, education, Chinese language skills, experience, etcetera.
If you reach at least level C, then your employer can apply online for your Foreigner’s Work Permit.
Basic requirements for work permit application:
Original bachelor (or higher degree) diploma. If the diploma has not been issued in China, then you shall also provide an authenticated copy, which can be obtained in a Chinese Consulate or Embassy in your country (or in the Embassy or Consulate of the country that released the diploma, if you are already in China);
Original reference letter from one or more non-Chinese companies that prove you have at least 2 years of full-time working experience (after graduation) in the industry you intend to work in China;
You also be required to provide a clean criminal record check issued by your country of citizenship (check the details with the CVASC or the Chinese Consular Office in your country);
So, if your employer is accredited to employ foreigners and you qualify as a foreign expert, it can apply for your Foreigner’s Work Permit.
After you get the work permit approval notice, please apply for a Z visa from your country within three months. then you can entry China legally with the Z visa.
Be aware that Z Visa is only valid for 30 days starting from the day you entered in China. Then you should transform it in a Temporary Resident Permit, your employer should help you to do so.
