I arrived in China in Sept. on a 2 entry 90 day tourist visa. I will leave in December and have 3 months left when I return. I have found an employer that will offer me a work contract so that I can apply for a work visa here and stay longer. I have read in some posts on other sites that I would now have to return to UK and go to Chinese embassy to obtain the work visa. Is it still possible to go to HK or another country outside of China to obtain it or do I need to go back to UK? I would also like to know if I do have to fly back to UK, is it viable to go to HK and apply for another tourist visa when my current one expires in March. Thanks for you help!
