About:Chinese Temporary Residence Permit
Foreign Expert Certificate / Temporary Residence Permit
What happens, if applications for Foreign Expert Certificate / Temporary Residence Permit cannot be done within the 30 days of the working visa? Does the holder of the 30-day Z type have to leave China? Will he/she be on overstay if he/she doesn't leave the country after it expires, with the certificate and residence permit applications still on?
