Q: How to Avoid legal Entanglements when Foreigners Rent a Property in Beijing?

One of my friends need to rent a property in Beijing because she has to work here for one year. Due to differences in the culture, laws and norms of society between China and the West, there have been many legal problems between foreign tenants and their Chinese landlords which should have been avoided. How to avoid the legal entanglements?

I recommend a law firm to you. Jay and Shaw Law Firm is a firm that specializes in the provision of legal services to small and medium-sized businesses and foreign individuals, helping them to deal with legal problems. From our years of experience, the following are some pointers that foreigners who wish to undertake a tenancy should take special note of:
1,A lease agreement must be signed with the landlord and it should clearly stipulate the landlord’s bank account to which all payable funds shall be remitted through.

  • 2,The landlord should readily provide the certificate of title of the property and all other related documents.
  • 3,The landlord must provide a second address other than the one currently being leased out.
  • 4,If working condition of the property’s amenities cannot be confirmed upon moving in, the lease agreement must clearly state that they will not be confirmed until the corresponding season arrives.
  • 5,Follow procedure and rules when subletting property.
  • 6,When leasing property through a rental agency, it is best to consult and solicit advice from a lawyer.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
