Are you an expat working and living in China? Or are you preparing to move soon to Beijing, Guangzhou or any other of the Chinese international hotspots?
Expat life in China has much to offer and provides a great intercultural experience – from discovering the countryside like the deltas of China's two major rivers, the Huang He and Yangtze, learning how Chinese people celebrate Qingming Festival, up to tasting China’s favorite dishes such as Peking duck & hot pot.
However, InterNations does not only address expats in China. We have brief overview guides for various locations around the world – from living in Panama to living in New Zealand.
Moving to and living in China requires a wealth of up-to-date, trustworthy information on various aspects of Chinese expat life. Living abroad in China raises a lot of questions such as: ʺHow do I find the best relocation services for moving to China?ʺ, ʺIs the smog in cities like Beijing or Shanghai a serious health risk?ʺ, ʺWhich international school in Beijing should our kids attend?ʺ or, ʺHow do I obtain a work permit for my spouse at the Chinese municipality in Shanghai?ʺ
Collecting all that information on working and living in China is quite laborious and time-consuming. Our InterNations Expat Guide for China aims to help you and provides you with reliable info on those topics that matter to expats living in China. The Guide includes information on many different areas ranging from housing and household, to administration & finance or travel and accommodation, up to education & children. Typical questions related to expat life abroad, such as ʺWhere can I take a crash course in Chinese writing?ʺ, will no longer remain unanswered.
