Hi,I’m Angie, from a professional China visa service company in Beijing. We have a decade of year running this company, and provide a wide range of convenient, reliable and economic visa service to expats: e.g. invitation letter, L/F/Z visa extension or alteration, changing L to F visa, changing L/F to working visa, driver license and so on. Working visa (Z visa) is our specialty.


Our advantages on doing Z visa:
1. If you have L visa or F visa, as long as you never changed your visa type, we can switch L or F visa to Z visa directly in Beijing; you don’t need to go outside of China.
2. If you have Z visa, we can also extend your Z visa directly in Beijing. However, on the condition that you have Z visa and without a working company, we can also do Z visa extension for you.
3. If you don’t have BA degree, two-year working experience, less than 24 years old or even working company, don’t worry and we could help you do Z visa.
4. Usually, it takes around 35 working days to do Z visa.
Besides, if you are urgent, Fast-tract Z visa will be available for only several working days.
Besides, now we can do F extension for complete 6 months with one, double and multi entries.


If you are interested in it, please contact me at jiarong_zh@hotmail.com OR call me at 13810375918. I would like to help you.
If convenient, welcome to our office to have a better known of us. Our office is at Room707-708, CYTS Plaza, No.5 Dongzhimen South Avenue, Dongcheng District, Beijing, P.R.C.

What they are not telling you is that you can simply jump on a train, or take a plane to Hong Kong, and do it for a fraction of the cost, or pay an agent in Hong Kong to do it for a fraction of the cost. Using these agents to convert an L to F to Z inside China is dopey at best. Your looking at spending 8 to 10,000 yuan for something you can have done in Hong Kong for 1,400 yuan, minus travel costs of course.

These visa agents are parasites, they don't do anything you could not do yourself, they simply pay officials working in the PSB visa office to not ask questions about all these conversions, then they keep the largest share of money being made. The max cost of any visa is 1,400 yuan, if you pay for their double whammy two visa service of L to F and then F to Z, you will end up spending over 10,000 I think. Hardly worth it.

Go to HK, it's worth the time, and money you will save. These people do nothing you can't do yourself, and they are thieves to boot.

dear Brian99.

First, I thought you dont not understand Z(work) visa of China.because if you want to do Z visa you need alot of paper.if you have all paper you can do it by yourself.but,as we know, some of foreigners they dont have the degree and 2 years of work experience. so they and the company are unable to handle Z visa at all.

Second, I thought you said is not comprehensive. not every one would like goto HongKong just for visa. some of my clients they are have full time job in beijing,and they are all sick of it(every year goto HK).


In fact, this is a service, a help, what do you think?

PS: Do not be too extreme,its good for you.

Thank you.
Have a nice day.

Angie

Yes, a trip once a year to Hong Kong is indeed to extreme for most people, what was I thinking. LOL.

Gimmie a break. Lots of paper? Indeed there is a fair amount involved, things which any good school will take care of. if you don't have a degree, and want to teach English here, as far as I know you can not get a Z visa, not a legal one anyhow. Also a Z visa and work permit are two entirely different things. Are you saying you can help people get both?

I see you did not comment on price, last I heard two years ago people were charging around 8,000 yuan for a Z visa, price has likely gone up. What are you charging for a visa that costs 1,400 yuan in Kong Kong?

Your services may be of help to some who wish to dwell in the gray areas and constantly fear deportation, however they certainly don't come cheap. Maybe you can help people who have no degrees get a Z visa, but why on earth would they pay you 10 grand plus for such an honor? That's just crazy. I think if anything is "extreme" here its yours and your fellows prices. What do you think?

I need to get china visa for 1 year, i don’t have BA degree, but i have two-year working experience in computer compagny.
