From Paris to Wenzhou, Hu Kezhe, a French-Chinese who had been on a plane for more than 10 hours, went straight out of the airport to the Exit and Entry Administration Bureau of the Municipal Public Security Bureau and got his long-awaited permanent resident identity card for foreigners. Yesterday, along with Hu Kezhe to collect this document also Wang Wei, Wang Zhende. They are the first three foreigners to be granted permanent residency status in China since the establishment of the State Migration Administration this year.
Foreigners' permanent resident identity cards are also called "Chinese green card". Since August 2004, when the State formally implemented the Measures for the Administration of Examination and Approval of Permanent Residence of Foreigners in China, it has been considered one of the most difficult green cards to get in the world.
His ancestral home in Wenzhou, Hu Kezhe was forced to emigrate to France in his early years under pressure from life. After about 2010, Hu Kezhe's focus of life has shifted back home and participated in a number of investment projects. However, as a foreign national, living in the country with a passport has many disadvantages, such as length of stay, opening a bank account, purchasing a ticket, etc., which cannot be resolved even with a residence permit for foreigners.
Sun Huakai, founder of the Atlantic city in Wenzhou and a Brazilian Chinese national, was the first foreigner to obtain permanent residence in Wenzhou. The acquisition took place in 2007. For more than a decade, he has witnessed the permanent residence permit of foreigners escalated to the current permanent residence card of foreigners, "now immigration clearance, bank account opening, it can be used with a brush of it, which is no different from a domestic citizen's identity card."
It is understood that the China National Migration Administration has optimized the procedures for foreigners to apply for permanent residence since the listing was established on April 2 this year, A total of 1,881 qualified foreign nationals were granted permanent residence in China within two months, equivalent to the total amount approved for the whole of 2017. Among them, Wenzhou has three expatriates who qualify.
An Australian Chinese, Wang Wei, said he was very excited to hear the news and sent a circle of friends to celebrate. "I am one of the 1,881 people in the country," he said.
Between 2007 and the end of 2017, 43 foreigners were granted permanent residency in China, according to the Director of the Exit and Entry Administration Bureau of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
It is understood that the system of permanent residence for foreigners, as an important institutional arrangement for global talent introduction, has attracted a number of high-end foreign talents to Wenzhou over the years. Of the foreign nationals who have obtained permanent residence in China in Wenzhou, six are included in the National Thousand Person Scheme, Zhejiang Kang Erda New Materials Co., Ltd. Technical Director Tao Kei is one of more than 40 patents. Mr. Tao said he spent three or four years in the United States applying for a green card and two or three months in China to apply for a permanent residence card for foreigners, "fully demonstrating the importance China attaches to high-end talent."
The Secretary for Exit and Entry Administration said Wenzhou would further enhance the efficiency of service management, widen application channels, simplify application procedures and allow the system to release more "dividends".
