[quote=APAULT,251908]Hong Kong citizens do not need a Z visa as they have a right to be on the mainland. However, if you read the following webpage you will find there are possible drawbacks. http://www2.eycom.ch/publications/ items/china/hc_client_issue1_200509/en.pdf In a nutshell, the employer would have to pay an extra 32% of your pay into a super fund and for health services, and you would have 12% of yr pay deducted for similar services! And to be eligible for this special status u had to register within 10 days of starting employment. It is dated '05, but I seems many employers don't know about this and are not deducting (or contributing) the required amounts. I guess it means businesses will only employ Honkers at a lower base salary than foreigners so they can afford to pay the 'social wages'. [/quote]
