外国人工作签证转聘常见问题

什么是“外国人工作许可证”转聘？What is "Foreigner Work Permit" transfer?

《外国人工作许可证》是外国人在中国工作的合法证件。在华工作的外国人变换用人单位，就需要办理工作许可证的转聘。

Foreigner Work Permit is a legal document for a foreigner to work in China. Foreigners working in China who change employers need to apply for a work permit transfer.

为什么要办理“外国人工作许可证”转聘？Why need to apply for "Foreigner Work Permit" transfer?

外国人换工作，必须同步申请办理外国人工作许可证转聘流程。如工作单位已经变更，但工作许可证未变更，不符合外国人来华工作的要求，视为非法就业。

When a foreigner changes jobs, he/she must apply for foreigner's work permit transfer at the same time. If the employer has been changed, but the work permit has not been transferred, then it's considered as illegal employment.

“外国人工作许可证”有效期多长？更换证件需要收费吗？How long is an foreigner Work Permit valid? Is there a fee for changing the work visa?

根据外国人来华工作人才判定标准，各地管理部门批复的工作许可证有效期不等，一般B类人才一年一签，到期续签，出入境管理局会有相应的签证收费。

According to the criteria for foreigners to work in China, the validity of the work permit approved by the local management departments is not equal. Generally, the B-type talent is valid for a year, and needs to be renewed before it expires. The Exit and Entry Administration Bureau will have the corresponding visa fee.

哪些人需要办理转聘？Who needs to apply for work visa transfer?

已取得外国人工作许可证的外国人，变更工作单位，都需要办理；外国人办理转聘需要注销现有工作许可证,同时需要变更居留许可（出入境管理条例规定离职后10天内进行注销，只有部分城市稍有放宽，所以离职转聘办理的时机是非常重要。）

A foreigner who has obtained a foreigner's work permit and changes company needs to handle it;

Foreigners need to cancel their existing work permits and change their residence permits (the Exit and Entry Administration regulations stipulate that the cancellation shall be made within 10 days after resignation, only some cities have slightly relaxed, so the timing of the resignation and employment transfer is very important).

已取得中国永久居留身份证的外籍工作者，无需申请工作许可证，可办理离职手续后，在新公司办理入职手续即可。

Foreign workers who have obtained Chinese permanent residence ID card (green card) do not need to apply for a work permit. They can go through the procedure of resignation and then go through the procedure of entry in the new company.
