can my baby apply for a permanent residence permitany other type of visa?

Question

I gave birth in Shanghai with my baby and until now me and my husband want to know if theres a possibility that our baby can get a permanent resident permit or even any kind of visa due to the fact we are going to be in china for work and me for studies until 2019. How much will it cost to apply and what documents do we need to provide please? also how many days will it take to process everything?

Renee, I’m afraid your baby cannot apply for permanent residence permit, but you can apply for a temporary residence permit for your baby. You need to provide the baby’s passport, your passport, the application form, a passport-style photo, valid registration form of temporary residence, study permit, as well as original birth certificate and its copy, and other materials the consular officers consider necessary. Afterwards, go to the exit and entry administration of the local PSB to submit the application. It may take 2 to 3 weeks and cost CNY400. This fee is for reference only.
