Hi there!

I did all the steps for work permit application and documents legalized by Chinese embassy at Hampshire as well.

Problem now is China wants a translation for documents in English. Can I bring my whole set of legalized documents to ITNM for translation and scan to
China or do I need to redo all the steps from notary public -> ITNM -> MoHE -> MOFA -> Chinese Embassy. Appreciate any advice!

Just a few quick questions for China work permit. Thanks for the advice in advance.

1. Is it a MUST to have degree cert in colour? I photocopied mine and MOHE & MOFA has certified it.

2. Is it necessary to get a notary public to notarize the documents? Or straight to MOHE & MOFA?

3. My passport photocopy, degree photocopy, company referral, GBC - all legalized already. Except I did not get it translated. Can I get the legalized documents translated or do I need to start from step one?

Thanks for the advice! Been running up and down to Putrajaya and embassy 3 times already. Appreciate any tips please!

Only below documents need to authenticate by relevant authorities:

1. Degree cert
English copy -> stamp by MOHE (bring along your ori cert and letter of completion study by the University) > stamp by MOFA -> authenticate by Chinese embassy
Chinese copy (translated by ITBM) -> stamp by MOHE -> stamp by MOFA -> authenticate by Chinese embassy

2. CGC
English original copy -> authenticate by Chinese embassy
Chinese copy (translated by ITBM) -> stamp by MOFA -> authenticate by Chinese embassy

Fees:
Degree cert notarization MOHE - Free
Degree/CGC cert notarization MOFA - RM 10/copy
CGC cert MOFA - RM 20/copy
Chinese embassy authentication - RM 160/copy

*Chinese embassy = China Visa Application Service Center at Hampshire Place

Got rejected in pre-approval check 预审 , reason being not enough work exp AFTER graduation.

I have worked 8 months full time in KL and 2.5 yrs part time for SG company while studying, all these before degree date don't count. And I am just 5 months away from 24 months requirement.

sorry to hear that.

any chance to appeal or reapply?

Working things out with the HR. Considering to do the M visa loophole.

Update 1: They refused to try M visa.

I'm in China for the past 3 years. In my experience, its better to let the HR handle it because at the end of the day its up to the officer evaluating your visa. They may dislike a certain word or say that it's missing a certain word and reject your application. I've faced a similar situation where one visa officer rejected my visa and after lunch, I went again and got approved by another officer.

Does your 3+0 program accredited by MQA in Malaysia ?

Hi guys, I have just graduated from an UK university. Is there any opportunities for fresh graduates in China now? Or do you guys know any expats in China that will help foreigners to get a job there?

I know most of you said that 2 years of working experience are compulsory to get the Z visa, but according to the new policy, Master's students that has graduated for less than a year might as well get approved if they are working in related field. Do you guys have any idea about that?

I think only foreigner that is holding master certificates from any university in Mainland are entitled for the Z visa. I'm not sure though. But it seems like the Chinese government is very firm on its 2-years working experience requirement.

I get a problem with the medical checkup. After submit the report from tung shin to China side and get rejected. The reason they gave is they don't know this hospital is recognize by China government or not.

Any one have the info showing tung shin hospital is recognized by China government for foreigner to do the check up for China working visa application?

Tung Shin is dropped? Singapore dont even have any recognized by PRC.

This is bad news, we need to go over to do check up ah.

I think is not drop. Just the department I apply to maybe lazy to check and straight reject the medical report. They ask me if get any documents or proof showing tung shin is recognize then can accept my report


I think still better to do the medical report in China next time. Save the trouble.

Can you get the employment pass notice before passing medical check up?

Yeah just do another body check up in China will solve the problem. You can get the report within 4 working days. I did for RMB435 here in dongguan.

Hold on, did you do medical check up before employment pass notice, after the notice + Z visa, then do it again?

No I did not perform any health exam in Tung Shin. I only did it in China after I got my Z visa.

You don't actually need the health check to get employment pass notice and Z visa? What did your HR do to make that happen?

If that's the case I rather get cucuk in China.

You can write a notice and saying you will submit the medical report after entering China then sign and let your HR to submit the application.

Then you can get the notice and get Z visa. Enter China only do. I'm queuing for the medical check up now.

So desu ka, I gonna ping my HR about it then.
