| GUEST23855 | Hi...I have got a job in Shenzhen and the employer told me to get a visit visa and than once i reach China, they will apply for my Residence permit and all. Do u think it is possible. What do you think I should do now?...Should I apply for a Z Visa and tell my Hotel to provide me all the documents needed. As I am from Pakistan and We here cannot get a Individual Visit Visa. Please help me!!!!! |

| I have heard before that it is difficult to get a visa from Pakistan. I can only answer what is a normal procedure, but if China has extra rules for Pakistanis, it might not be so simple. If you are an employee of a Chinese business youshould apply for a Z vis. To get this you will need appropriate documentation from your employer. Some people work on an F cisa though it is not strictly permitted, but again you will need supporting paperwork from the employer. Alternatively you get a tourist visa and when you are here TRY to get a Z or an F visa, though that might need a trip across to Hong Kong (no problem if you are in Szhenzhen) and it will still need the paperwork. If you work on a tourist visa and are caught you risk being fined and deported (and on an F visa ifthe rules are enforced). I suggest you contact your employer and ask which visa they want you to apply for and please will they send the appropriate documentation. |

| GUEST11297 | Hi all, I have a question. I have a multiple entry L visa that is good for 60 days each stay. The visa itself is good until march 2009. My 60 days are almost up but I need to stay for another 20 or so. Will there be any problem if cross the border into Hong Kong for a day and then re enter the country? That should reset my duration of stay shouldnt it? With the new restrictions on L visas im a little worried that when I leave the country they wont let me back in. |

| You do not have to stay for any period of time... you can walk out and back in again. You shouldn't have any problems with the restrictions as you are using an existing visa. |

| GUEST25421 | is foreign expert certificate the same with alien employment certificate? |

| Foreign and alien are synonyms. I have never heard the word 'alien' use in the Chinese context. |

| Apault - you are lucky - I am called an alien on a daily basis! I must come from Mars. |

| Yes Baron, I had heard rumours! Alternative response: I had assumed you were from Mars and not Venus! |
