[quote=GUESTGUESTMARO,296205]when I came to China, my business visa F was for 1 month only. I married a chinese girl and went with my wife to the visa office and applied for visiting family visa L, for one year, and I was told I can extend it before it expires. as many times as I want. this is very convenient. after 5 years I can get the permanent residence. 
but with visa L you are not allowed to work (not legal), me I have my business and work in internet so this is not a problem for me. so if you want to work legally, you will need to find an employer and apply for Visa Z and a residence permit. 
marriage registration takes just 15 minutes and you will need:
1- passport
2- certificate of non marital status original in english and a translated version into chinese.
the bride will need her family book.
applying for the visiting family (L) visa in the "entry and exit office" will take around 7 working days. but they will need a paper from police station about your residence. this paper you will get it from the police station responsable of the area where you live.
I hope these will help[/quote]
