Offer letter vs Contract

This is not normal and I would avoid this if I were you. The probation period (4 months) is quite unusual as well but not a big issue. If you are in a position to negotiate, I highly recommend you to see a copy of your contract, even if you don't have to sign it right now (but it's better if you can).

Hi brightonguy,

Thank you for quick response.

In the offer letter, there's basic information (accomodation, transpo, salary, tickets, terms) indicated.

Also they gave me "terms and condition."

Will this suffice?

Well it technically should. Can you get a confirmation from your employer when will you get your CPR once you move in? Will it be after completing your probation period or before (should be before - you should be able to get it within a month or so). CPR (Central Population Registration) Card enables you to open a bank account, start a mobile contract etc. Without it, you don't legally exist in the country, pretty much

Thanks for this information, I will definitely ask this.

Aside from this, according to them, they will take care of the work permit..

Great. Good luck!

means?? ok?

Now I'm confused

Meaning if you are having a work permit, then the CPR will follow (it's just a procedure). But without a work permit, then you'll be an illegal immigrant / worker here - which is not recommended for obvious reasons.

Merci.
