I left in June 2016 for my home country and now returned to China, can I use my Old Z type to apply for a new job or do I have to go trough the entire process all over again and apply for another Z type here in Beijing? I will appreciate your earliest reply

No, I’m afraid you cannot use the old work Z type to apply for a new job. You should find a new job first and then apply for a new work Z type to work in China.

I had a Z visa issued to me in 2012 in Hong Kong and have used it for 4 years,
