About the Event
Since the pandemic’s lockdowns, the Chinese government imposed policies that complicate procedures to enter China. The uncertainty about visas and residence permits remains. On the other hand, China rolls out incentives in terms of settlement, tax, social insurance, medical services and education. The European Chamber is delighted to invite you to this workshop where insiders and experts will analyse the foreign population’s development in Shanghai, and deconstruct policies relevant to expats.
