Question

What are the requirements, in this case, for obtaining permanent residency?

Alvin · Answer

It is very difficult for you to get permanent residency in China. If you don't know anyone or have family living in China, you can only apply for a tourist visa. This type of visa has validity of 2 years at most with the duration of 30 - 90 days one entry. So, China multiple entry tourist visa is the best choice. It can also be extended within China before expires.
