Forums > Living in Kunming > Shanghai Criminal History Check

This certificate is now required both in and out of China. Your case is a good example of needing this certificate when you lived or worked in another province in China. There are a few people on the enclosed thread who had this done through an agency. I did mine in person but I realize you are trying to avoid the trip to Shanghai.

For anyone who plans to move to another province, make sure you get your certificate before you leave as you will eventually need it.

I am sure this warning will be ignored and another thread will pop up soon asking how to do this AFTER the person has left the province or left China. Saved for posterity.

In China, same as any other place in the world, you can buy a ticket at any time - provided there are empty seats and you are willing to pay the price the airlines ask for.

My suggestion is to come to China and leave your plans intact. Just be prepared to make changes as needed because of weather.

Hugo's Travel Rules:

1 - never book rooms in advance - there will always be rooms to be had and when you purchase from abroad you pay more anyway. Reservations can not be changed and you will lose money because REFUNDS do not happen in China.

I once saw some fools in Lijiang with their usual double backpacks in Old town. They were looking for a particular guesthouse I never heard of before. I told them to pick any along the way because they are all the same. They said they already paid (stupid). 2 hours later, after my wife and I already got a room and were walking around and relaxing we saw the same double backpack fools still looking for the mysterious guesthouse.

Reservations means I have to be at a certain place on a given day. That means I can not alter my itinerary along the way because I can not get my money back. In the end I pay twice. In 12 years I have never made a reservation in China or in Yunnan and there is always a room for me. I usually pay anywhere from 150-200 Yuan for a room.

Travel is meant to be enjoyed. Do not limit yourself and put so many restrictions on yourself.

I am a Marine and trekking means walking, hiking, or as we Marines call it, humping. I can walk, hike, trek in Lijiang Old Town for hours and get lost in the many small alleys along the way. I can also trek along the many mountains and with many beautiful views on a sunny day. I do not have to walk, hump or trek specifically at Tiger Leaping Gorge on a specific rainy day.

It is all a matter of choice and more choices makes travel more fun. Be prepared and be flexible and you will not have any problems.

The agenda is very clear as it is clear to what is happening in the last few decades all over the world; To normalize the abnormal. For those who still have the courage to call a spade a spade, I applaud you. For the corwards who hide behind political correctness, you have that right, just as those who state the obvious have a right to free speech on this forum. If this was an article on the Rocky Horror Picture Show coming to China, then the attire is appropriate. This person obviously wanted attention, well he got it. Once again the same issue comes to surface. All humans have the right to do as they please as long as they are not harming others. Clearly, this man has the right to dress as he pleases because he is NOT harming anyone. People have the right to keep private what is private just as they have the right to make public those things which are private. It is obvious that this man knew exactly what he was doing when he submitted this picture. The agenda is clear whether you agree or not. He wanted attention and he got it. If he usually dresses like this in public as some people here have already mentioned than it is not the first time and he knows exactly what he is doing and he does this on purpose and with a goal in mind.

Bjtokm - I agree with you and your comments as your are merely pointing out the obvious, the pink elephant in the living room, the emperor with no clothes, or the man dressed in drag. I see no judgement made on your part. You just were the first to make an observation. The name calling began when others started calling you childish and unintelligent. As for the ridiculous comment about you putting your own picture online, I find that comment irrelevant and absurd. I am sure if you posted your picture online you would not put a picture of you in your underwear, or naked or dressed in drag. You never mocked the appearance of this person you just asked a very obvious question.

The new Visa office is located at 118 Tuo Dong Road. There is no number on the building yet so do not bother to look for it. There are 2 passport photo shops on either side of the building. The office is located directly in front of the Kunming Museum. The bus stop is named - Shi Bo Wu Guan - Bus 1, 62, 109, 117, 145, 213, A1 and K3 stop directly in front of the office. Foreigners need to go to the 3rd floor. The Tuo Dong Stadium is located to the right of the office while Baita Road is located to the left of the office.
