ビザの延長および滞在許可の期限
査証延長は許可された滞在期間が終了する少なくとも7日前までに、初回居住許可は入国後30日以内に、居住許可の更新は有効期限が切れる少なくとも30日前までに申請しなければならないという、3つの法定期間が申請の可否を決定します。
就労許可証と居住許可証は期限が別々に設定された二つの独立した承認であり、有効な就労許可証を保持していても、居住許可証自体の30日間の有効期間が延長されることはありません。
- Visa extension (Article 29): if your visa marks a stay of 180 days or less and you need longer, file at least 7 days before the marked stay period ends, at the exit-entry administration of a public security bureau at or above county level in the place you are staying.
- An extension is reviewed, not automatic (Article 29): it is granted only where the stated reason is found reasonable and sufficient. If it is not granted, you are required to leave by the original date.
- Extensions are capped (Article 29): the total extension cannot exceed the stay period originally marked on the visa.
- First residence permit (Article 30): this applies only if your visa states that a residence permit must be obtained after entry. File within 30 days of the entry date at the exit-entry administration in the place you intend to reside. Fingerprints and other biometric data are collected.
- Review window (Article 30): the exit-entry administration examines the application and decides within 15 days of receiving the materials.
- Residence permit renewal (Article 32): file at least 30 days before the permit expires. This is also reviewed on whether the reason is reasonable and sufficient.
- Check current local requirements before you file: the National Immigration Administration website, or the 12367 immigration service hotline.
