About:Chinese Embassy in U.K.

My wife will get a Z visa to work in China as a teacher, if I get a Z visa as a dependant, can I work legally in China?

Hi, My wife got a teaching job in China and will be getting a 'z visa'. I am wondering if I can get a job and work under 'her z visa' or do I apply for a Z Visa together with her and once I have this Z Visa as a dependant, can I work legally in China with this visa??

Many many thanks!

You can't legally work in China under Z visa as dependent. Now, you can apply for Z visa as dependent to enter China, and then apply for residence permit. During the stay in China, you can find a job and ask the employer to obtain the Official Invitation Letter and Alien Employment License, once you get the two documents, you can go to Hong Kong to apply for work visa, then return to Mainland China to work and apply for residence permit.
