Forums > Living in Kunming > COVID 19 vaccine for foreigners

That's probably because residence permit has been been confused with accommodation registration, with the latter needed also by S2 (and any other) visa holders.

It was (apparently) cited by medical authorities that residence permit is required, but what they really meant was the accommodation registration from local police station.

These medical authorities who know nothing of entry/exit, probably confused the terminology

- Chinese non-hukou holders residing in Kunming also require a temporary residence permit, which they do acquire from same local police stations where foreigners get accommodation registration from. But it's not where foreigner's residence permit comes from.

Technically no.

But if it goes ugly, and the marriage has proven history of having one half forced to take care of home (even if no children) instead of possibility of going to work and making career, then there are cases where courts have decided to require compensations.

China's marriage law keeps property of the individuals separate. In case of divorce, the ex will not have claim to any property that you already had before the marriage.

Even if technically possible, in practice you will probably need to acquire a fresh (properly legalized) no-cririminal certificate from your home country. Depending on what country that is, it may require a trip back home to get it.

Also assuming that you aren't yet married and only contemplating visa implications in doing so, the marriage registration itself requires equally legalized document from your home country, proving that you are single and as such eligible for the marriage in China.

My aged Chinese mother-in-law indicated that she'd like to get vaccinated, but she was denied by local clinic citing that at her age she should get it at a bigger hospital. Better prepared to deal with any problems arising from her age there. Not necessarily ones related to the vaccine itself, but the process also.

@alienew: "The workers should hold them liable with brickbats."

Well, that would set a dangerous precedent, which would only result in only tighter enslaving of employees in future operations across the nation. And certainly overriding limited liability of iinvestors only serves to drive investments away from these places.

The second to last picture with all the shop signs actually reminds me of Hong Kong.

Perhaps off topic, but this is strikingly opposite of recent developments in first tier cities and in fact even our own apartment block in northern Kunming, where the authorities are forcing shops to remove excessive signs on the streets and in the walls - basically anywhere outside the immediate space the shops have leased.

Alright, if you go that way then everything is assuming. Assumptions is what made our ancestors come down from trees and cross a river and a mountain range. You assume quite a bit already when you go to sleep at night.

I am not assuming anything that didn't happen already. China already had a peasant revolution that was supposed to bring prosperity to all.

I am not asking for another revolution, but I am asking for that same spark. I do admit assuming that the Chinese state can contain such spark better this time.
