Q: what's the laws on gas and electric scooters in Dalian

In Beijing ,If you don't have number plates, no fuel, yet I saw hundreds of locals without plates

I paid an extra 2000 Yuan for number plates on my scooter and never got stopped.

I actually had a policeman walk up to me and a local guy next to me at a traffic light, he looked at my plates, then looked at the local guy with no plates, made him get off the bike and confiscated it

I was told that in Dalian, you can't get number plates for gas scooters, but Electric is ok. plates not needed

Anybody know?

I don't think any place license electric scooter.

i also don't understand why they don't steal more electric scooters, no license plate, i don't have papers but the sales receipt for mine. All you have to do is change the switch or take the tumblers out. locks can be cut in seconds.

In the Dalian city center, they do not allow any motorized/non-motorized bikes. Outside the downtown area they are allowed, but I have only seen moto-taxis. I honestly don't recall seeing a scooter of any type in Dalian. Even bikes were very rare.

Hi John, Thanks

I live in Lushun District, there are hundreds of gas and electric bikes

My girlfriends friend is a policeman, He says cannot get plates for gas, but electric is ok, I see plates and I don't see plates on the gas ones. She said the police stop the ones with no plates and ticket them everyday

That sounds like a crock to me, Yet I really want one, We'll have to see, It probably takes a little cash to get the plate

Ah. I lived in the Zhongshan district near the Shangrila hotel. I guess the rules are different there.

Q: When do you need to get a medical examination?

A: Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam bef

A:Your potential employer is right! Purpose of the Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China. So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital. -- icnif77
