Q<\/i><\/em>: How<\/i><\/em> to define ‘work legally’ in Shanghai? Anything I need to notice?<\/i><\/em><\/p>\n

A: If you want to work in Shanghai, nothing can be more important than legality! According to the Exit-Entry Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, only expats with a work permit and residence permit for the working purpose are eligible to be recruited by employers.<\/p>\n

If you are falling into any of the following situations, the alarm bell rings! Probably you are under the risk:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Working within China without any valid permit.<\/li>\n
  2. Doing works that are not allowed by your permit (i.e., working for certain fields or positions only for Chinese employees, doing part-time jobs which are not registered when you applied for your work permit, etc.).<\/li>\n
  3. As an overseas student, working longer than the restricted working hours or doing the works that are not allowed by your permit.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It is also noteworthy that the valid time of a residence permit can be at least 90 days, and up to a maximum of 5 years, which will give you enough time to find your dream job in Shanghai! How to get a permit with a valid period as long as possible? Our experts will give you the answers.<\/p>\n
