Good day,
I need some advises please.
I am Singaporean and will be going to China soon to stay (probably staying many years) with my girlfriend until we register our marriage in China(She is a Chinese Nationality). I have no job offer there yet.
1. How to apply for long period visa (If haven't register marriage, if no job)?
2. If I started my own company in Singapore, but go to China to stay and operate my business in China), how & where can I apply visa, and for how long would this visa last?
3. If I haven't register marriage in China but got a job offer, how long is my work visa last?
4. Refer question 3, how much do I/company need to pay if the company hiring me is applying my work visa?
Apologies for many questions and please be patience with them, thank you.
Andy
