With the opportunity of rapid economic development and immersion in a new culture, China has become a hot destination for enterprising foreigners seeking new challenges.<\/a> As a foreign<\/a>er, if you want to work in China<\/strong>, you need a work visa. If you plan to live and work in China<\/a> for a while, you almost certainly need a work visa to live and work legally in China. Citizens of a very small number of countries (currently Singapore, Brunei, and Japan) can come to China without visas for a short time and can work without a special permit. However, for others, you need to get a visa before you start living or working in China.<\/p>\n

Requirements of Work In China<\/a><\/strong><\/h1>\n

Of course, every employer has its own requirements<\/a>, so be sure to check the requirements of each job description. Generally, the following requirements must be met:<\/p>\n

Bachelor degree or above<\/p>\n

English native or near-native accent<\/p>\n

Outgoing, adaptable and interesting<\/p>\n

English Certificate of teaching<\/a> post<\/p>\n

Initial flight and visa fees<\/p>\n

<\/span>Benefits of Work In China<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

In addition to the salary itself, the extra income you get from your local foreign workers in China is equally important. Some expatriate packages do not include any housing<\/a>. Others will give you an allowance of up to $1500 per month. Only a small number of locally hired expatriates will offer you Apartments – otherwise, you will have to find one yourself.<\/p>\n

Health care: when working in China, of course, you need foreign health<\/a> care packages and evacuation services. If this is included in your employment contract, an additional $200 per month will be added to your total benefits<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Leave: the standard leave for expatriates<\/a> employed locally is 3-4 weeks paid leave per year. If you are lucky, your vacation package will also include annual round-trip flights to your home country.<\/p>\n

Visa<\/a>: your company shall handle all tasks related to visas. If you are lucky, they may send you to Hong Kong every 3-6 months to get a new visa. Therefore, you will not only have the opportunity to visit Hong Kong, but also help you avoid taxes in China. If your company refuses to apply for a visa on your behalf, the visa will be a headache, so please insist that your visa and all related work permits be managed by the visa.<\/p>\n

Bonus and salary increase: the standard bonus is monthly salary or below. Standard wages vary from year to year, but are usually between 5-15%.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Why Work In China<\/a>?<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

In addition to the appeal of working in one of the world’s fastest-growing economies, many foreigners are also attracted to China because they are eager to experience a completely different culture. But please note that these cultural differences may also put a lot of pressure on your work environment, and not everyone can cope with the work in a cross-cultural environment. According to reports, the “failure rate” of Chinese expatriates is as high as 70%, and many expatriates return home before their contracts expire.<\/p>\n

In other words, working in China is very beneficial to your resume. It shows that you are willing to work in a new culture and experience different market<\/a>s. With China’s growing importance in the world economy, the time spent here is a reliable investment in the future – at least to succeed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the opportunity of rapid economic development and immersion in a new culture, China has become a hot destination for enterprising foreigners seeking new challenges.
