公安部放宽在沪外籍人才申领绿卡限制   2015-06-11

 

THE Ministry of Public Security has relaxed the guidelines for green cards in an effort to retain foreign talents in Shanghai.

From July, foreigners who have lived in Shanghai for four straight years and have paid their taxes will be eligible for permanent residence permits, or green cards.

Currently, business executives, scientists or academicians are entitled to the permanent residence permits. The new rules, announced by the ministry on Tuesday, make it easier for people from all walks of life to apply for the permit.
