working visa for australian passport holder

Question

Hi, I am holding an Australian passport and will start to work in China from September. I need to apply for a China working visa, which form do I need to fill in? Is there a link for it? How often do I need to renew my working visa and am I able to renew it in China?

Hi, you need to fill in the visa application V2011A and V2011B. You can fill online on this website: http://www.visaforchina.org/MEL_EN/onlinetools/252293.shtml. You must apply for a residence permit at the local public security authorities within 30 days of entry into China. Resident Permit holders may stay in China and enter or exit China multiple times without the need of a visa during the validity period of the permit. To remind you, after you have got the resident permit, your work visa expired. If you want to stay longer than the duration of resient permit (if your work contract does not ends), you need to apply for extension of the permit. If you remain with the same organization/company, they will arrange the residency extension.
