Stay in China illegally and be punished? Of course not! We still have the last straw to save our lives - applying for a stay visa! 停留签证是一种人道主义签证，主要发放给居留事由终止但因人道主义等必要原因需要在中国停留更长时间的外籍人士，有效期一般不超过30日。The stay visa (T visa) is a humanitarian visa, which is mainly issued to foreigners who need to stay in China for a longer period of time due to humanitarian and other necessary reasons after their original visas are expired. Its validity generally does not exceed 30 days. 它不是用于入境中国的签证，而是用于留在中国的签证，所以在各驻外大使馆是无法申请的，要向申请人居住地的出入境管理部门申请，并且应当在签证、停留证件有效期届满7日前提出申请。T visa is not a visa for entering China, but a visa for staying in China. Therefore, it cannot be applied for in embassies stationed abroad. It should be applied to the exit and entry administration department of the applicant's residence, and the application should be submitted 7 days before the expiry of the visa and residence permit. 适用人群 People eligible for treatment 1、通过免签待遇入境，但因外交、公务以外的原因需要在中国停留更长时间的的外籍人士；Foreigners holding visa free visa need to stay in China for a longer time for reasons other than diplomacy and official business after entering the country.2、需要离开船舶停泊城市的外国船员及其随行家属;Foreign crew members and their accompanying family members who need to leave the ship's berthing city.3、经批准退出中国国籍，仍需要留在中国的;Those who withdraw from Chinese nationality after approval and still need to stay in China.4、被终止居留理由的外国人，因人道主义原因需要在华停留更长时间的，如因身体状况、疫情或居留许可被取消后需要准备时间离开中国的外国人Foreigners whose reasons for residence have been terminated need to stay in China longer for humanitarian reasons. 5、在中国出生、需要停留在中国的外国婴儿；Foreign babies born in China who need to stay in China temporarily.6、需要办理外国人停留证件的其他情形，如在中国申请工作许可或注册公司的过程中需要更多的准备时间。Other circumstances requiring foreigners' residence certificates. For example, more preparation time is needed in the process of applying for work permit or registering a company in China. 因不同事由申请停留签证需提供的证明材料也有所不同，例如，外国人居留事由中止的，应当提交居留事由已终止的证明材料，如原单位的离职证明和外国人就业证注销证明，毕业证或就读学校出具的学习结束的证明等；若是中国境内出生的外国婴儿，须提交婴儿的出生证明（包括副页）原件及复印件、父母双方有效护照(或者其他旅行证件)等。For applications for T visa filed for different reasons, the supporting documents to be provided are also different. For example, if a foreigner needs a stay visa due to the suspension of his residence reasons, he should provide the proof that the residence reasons have been terminated, such as the separation certificate of the original unit, the cancellation certificate of the foreigner's work permit, the graduation certificate or the certificate of completion of study issued by the school. For foreign infants born in China, the original and copy of the birth certificate (including duplicate pages), valid passports of both parents (or other travel documents) should be provided. 若停留签证到期后，还没处理好离境事宜，还可以申请签证延期，具体延长期限从7天到30天不等，具体由出入境部门决定。If the departure has not been ready yet when the stay visa is expires, you can still apply for visa extension ranging from 7 days to 30 days, which is determined by the immigration department. 虽然出入境部门没有对于延期次数做出明确限制，但不建议多次申请停留签证延期，这样十分不利于后续新签证的申请。Although the entry-exit department has not made clear restrictions on the frequency of extensions, it is not recommended to apply for many times, because such behavior is very unfavorable to the subsequent application of your new visa. 若是想要长留中国，建议尽早办理相关居留许可，如工作居留、团聚居留或者私人事务居留。目前中国大部分城市都有政策支持，持各类签证（如X/M/Q/S签）的外籍人士无需出境，在境内即可更换签证类型，办理工作居留。If you really plan to stay in China for a long time, it is better for you to apply for relevant residence permits as soon as possible, such as residence permit for work, residence permit for reunion or residence permit for private affairs. At present, most cities in China have supporting policy for foreigners holding other types of visas (such as X/M/Q/S) to change their visas and apply for permit for work and residence in China, without leaving the country. 瀚客在申请来华签证、在华居留方面有着丰富经验，如有疑问，欢迎咨询！HACOS has rich experience in helping foreigners apply for Chinese visas and residence permits.
