Title: 10 year visa
Post by: scotto858 on June 01, 2017, 11:08:01 PM
SOOO,  I am considering applying for a 10 year visa after my contract here runs out, and just sort of getting my own apartment and seeing what happens.  Does anyone have any experience with that visa? Is it like, a 10 year unlimited entry tourist visa?  Can I get a 1 year residency permit with a school and still keep that 10 year visa, or would that keep me from getting any other visa?

Any info on this at all would be appreciated. I would love to apply for the 10 year visa WHILE i still have my residency permit, but i dont know if there will be overlapping problems.

let's just say getting that visa will complicate your life. it's 10 years multiple entries with maximum duration of stay 90 days ( sometimes 30 or 60 days)

You can only have one visa at the time so if you're planning on working in China, it's a bad idea to do this. you would need to start the process for work permit all over again.

granted.   but considering i have several individuals I can do work for, and I am a very short trip to HK or Macao -- I could fix my visa every month or every 3 months no problem, and I would be able to freelance -- be a movie star, or just travel around.   

**I found out it would mess with a current visa, so ill have to wait until my residency permit expires
