Yes, it is true.  But not all will, only the bigger ones, like the 5 stars or so.  Maybe a few 4 stars.

But be aware, they may offer you a lower rate than banks, and on top may charge you a fee for doing so.

 

And one ;last observation, makes no difference where you exchange money, check each bill carefully to insure that you got no fakes, before leaving the place of exchange

Thakkudu:

have your ever got fakes from Chinese Bank or 5star hotel?.. normally i blindly believe both these places..

In China, I do not trust even my shadow. I got my fake 100.s yuan bills out of ATM machine at a local branch of ICBC Bank. And they refused to exchange them, even if security guard confirmed the bills came out pof machine because he was next to me helping with transaction.

I hated litigating against banks. Even before the bailouts, they could get away with anything.

the bank will exchange it for you

HappyExPat:

ICBC refused to change them, and I even called the Police and wasted 4 hours. Even their security man confirmed my story, and still refused

A:You can still skin into China as a non-English native teacher by holding English Teaching license in your home country.2nd: Your BA degree should be completed in a native English country. Once, you fulfilled these 'parameters', you qualify for an English teaching job in China as a non-native English sneaker with Z - Entry/Working visa with Working and Residence permit later on. See the last 'Answers Highlight' ---> there is a web link posted about 'requirements for teaching English language in China as a non-English native passport holder'. https://www.gooverseas.com/blog/guide-teaching-english-china#paragraph-item-63614-target

*English proficiency: Passport from one of seven "native speaker" countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and South Africa). If you aren’t a native speaker, you’ll need to be a certified teacher in your home country with proof of your English proficiency (e.g. IELTS or TOEFL). I'd say, Chinese will choose and look especially for a native English speaker at teaching of English Literature job openings. Posted job adverts for English Literature teaching are most likely from International Schools in China. Good luck! -- icnif77
