Hi, Guys,
I just moved to China for a couple weeks, and I am currently on Q1 Visa,
I would love to set up a small cafe-like shop in Beijing,
So I will be sooo grateful if anybody would share their personal experience or advises on how to get the work permit or the VISA that allows me to run a business in China.

Many thx!!!!! )))

Jack hi

If you are the legal rep of a company you can get a 2yr work (Z) visa. I speak from personal experience (just renewed it a couple of weeks ago for another 2 yrs.)

pm me your email address and if poss a contact phone number and I will get someone to walk you through the process of establishing a WOFE.
