Hi there,

I am flying to Beijing this Saturday, flights are booked, accomodation settled and have found employment for an insurance firm for just one month, I am planning to travel while I am there.

Until today I was under the understanding that the Return to Village/Home card, or Wui Heung Jing, was suffice to go to China and work. Today when I was browsing I was corrected, can someone clarify this?

Theres no way I can cancel my trip now and I will go if I can't work anyway. But that will really suck! will it be possible to simply work without a work permit or apply for one when I get there? (My work starts two days after I arrive) Any advice on this issue will be much appreciated

You mean the Home Return Permit?

Home Return Permit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

According to it, allows you to travel freely and take up employment in mainland China.
