Temporary Residence Permit with X2 Visa: is it possible?


Nicoletta

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

 

I'd like to study for one semester (X2 Visa) in Shenzhen at SZU, but in the meantime I'd also like to visit Hong Kong and Macau during the weekends, so in order to re-entry China I would need a temporary residence permit.

 

I know I'm not required to obtain a permit in the first 30 days if I enter with an X2 Visa, but my question is: can I obtain one if I want to?

 

Many thanks in advance to anyone who may help :)

If it is an X1 long-term study visa, you need to have it changed to a 1-year or longer Residence Permit for Study within 30 days of arrival. It is a multiple-entry visa.

 

If it is an X2 visa, you don't need to do it, though. But if it is a one-entry visa, you cannot use it when coming back from HK or Macau.
