[quote=GUEST7864,542442]GUEST88126, According to what I know, it's almost impossible for foreigners to change visa tyes in mainland China without leaving. If you hold a L tye, you need to exit China to apply for a Z. You need to make sure that your employer can change your L type to Z type after you arrive. You know, it's illegal to work with other types rather than Z. Since you don't get your Z before you go to China, you can't apply for a S type for your wife before you go. It's ok that she applies for a L type first if she wants to enter China with you. However, I am not sure if she can get the S type succesfully. The reason is stated before. If your employer can change L type to Z for you, he/she should be able to do that for your wife. If so, she can come with a L and change it to a S type. However, I personally the safest way is that you come to China at first. When you get the Z type, you can send an invitation letter and help your wife to apply for a S type. Then she saves the trouble to change from L type to S type.[/quote]
