GUEST58787	Hi. Can Taiwanese citizens teach English or do any other work in China? What kind of visa do they need to work in China? Thank you.

GUESTMARC	Hello, I'm having a lot of problems with my visa to enter China this summer 2008. Right now I'm in Canada (montreal) I have a Spanish passport. I need to go for an internship for 4 months in China - Guangzhou. I already have the letter of admission from the company. Chinese people (who are in charge of visas to china in Montreal) they told me that it's unprobable that China will give the visa (F-visa) due to the olimpic games. But I'll be in Guangzhou, not in Beijing. Even with a tourist visa (3 months) they tell me that China will only allow me to be there 1 month. What can I do? I will apreciate a lot an answer, Marc

Not sure how you stand on visas... there are special provisons for Taiwanese I think,,, that give you extra rights to work here. You should look up on the PRC immigration and visa website.

I don't think you would need a visa to work but you might find some other employment regulations apply (such as paying social security insurance).

If you get a 90 day L visa (easy when in HK), you can stay for 90 days! That is the purpose of the 90 day visa. Anyone telling you that due to the Olympics you will only be allowed to stay for 30 days is clearly off their rocker! As you will be in GZ, it is easy to get on the train to HK and get a new visa when your initial one expires.

If you are with a tour group, the organisers wil tell you what is required for Shenzhen You can obtain entry to Macau and Hong Kong without a visa. For Shenzhen you will require either a full tourist visa obtained in advance or you can obtain a restricted visa for Shenzhen when you arrive there - I THINK it is valid for at least 5 days. I would call this a visa as you must pay a fee. I would recommend that you speak with your travel agent to confirm this.
