The latest policies and regulations for foreigners entering China.

Because of the epidemic, many people at home and abroad can't go home because of the epidemic, and domestic control is also very strict. However, with the change of epidemic situation, the immigration policy of foreigners in China is also changing at any time. So what is the latest immigration policy for foreigners in China? Please see below for details.

1. What preparations do foreigners need for entry?

The necessary materials for entry into China include passport, remaining cards, three accounting examination results and 7-day self-test thermometer. Among them, three accounting test reports should be tested by two different testing institutions, and the qualifications of the testing institutions should be verified. This can be checked online, or you can ask the testing institution whether it meets the requirements.

You must have an international health code. You must be green to board the plane. According to the prompt, there are three opportunities to fill in the information. You can't just fill it in. The information is wrong, the health code is not green, so you can't board the plane. At that time, I was stuck in the 7-day temperature self-test form, and finally I downloaded the form with the correct format from the Internet to get through safely.

At the airport, you still need to apply for a necessary customs clearance code. I'll use this code again when I get off the plane and get home. When you arrive at the airport, you must connect to the wireless network of the airport. A staff member prompts you to fill in the customs clearance code. Just fill it out carefully according to the prompts. You don't know how to ask the staff, including customs officers, to weigh your luggage, verify your identity and give you the boarding seat number after the ticket, so you can fill it in. I booked a plane ticket online and took it from the e-certificate.

Then you can board the plane smoothly. Everyone must queue up at the airport in advance, because there are too many people, and you have to apply for the customs clearance code at the airport. If the operation is not skilled, it will delay the boarding time.

2. Entry segregation policy

On the other hand, the entry quarantine policy is gradually relaxed, and the quarantine time will be shortened. At present, Beijing is considering shortening the quarantine requirements for international immigrants to "77", that is, hotel centralized quarantine for 7 days and home health monitoring for 7 days.

In the final stage of Beijing's anti-epidemic work, the "107" isolation cycle has been implemented, that is, "10 day centralized isolation, 7 days home isolation". Previously, Beijing adopted "147" isolation measures. It is not difficult to see that the policy of access segregation is gradually relaxed with the passage of time.

It should be noted that although international flights have increased and entry-exit quarantine policies have been relaxed, the current epidemic situation is still grim. Before and after boarding the plane, everyone must pay attention to the local epidemic prevention requirements, and carry out nucleic acid detection and antigen self-test separation according to the specifications.

3. The difference between a Chinese visa and a long-term residence permit in China.

Visa agencies are different.

Visas are issued by embassies abroad; The residence permit is issued by the government of China.

Visa can only stay in China for 180 days at most. The visa expires and needs to be extended. If there is no special reason, the visa cannot be extended and you need to leave the country. Moreover, the residence permit allows you to stay in China for a long time without leaving the country every once in a while.

After holding a visa, there is no way to apply for a green card in China. However, if the residence permit reaches a certain period and meets the application conditions, you can submit an application for permanent residence in China.

Children can't study in China with a visa, but they can go to school with a residence permit. Schools in some areas also support studying in domestic public schools with residence permits.

You can't buy domestic insurance and social security with a visa, and you can't open a bank card Alipay. But the residence permit is ok, which provides great convenience for foreigners.
