Required Paperwork to work In China..!!
I wanted to make a post to tell pilots who are launching off to China for work which paperwork to make sure they bring along. I mean you must bring Original copies some notarized.
I made a previous post "If you want to work in China" you may want to check out.

The China application process is normally 2 steps.
Step 1. Initial trip to China for interview which takes 7 to 10 days. You will normally Interview, take the CAAC written exam, CAAC medical in Beijing and maybe a local medical for your work permit. Then you will go back home and wait for some verification process and then head back for work. (see PPRUNE link to Chinese Written Exam here http://www.pprune.org/south-asia-far-east/262104-chinese-written-test-2.html )
Step 2. Head to China for work and make sure you bring all these documents and anything else your agency asks for. (hopefully you have removed any circle to land restriction prior to this point or plan on waiting another 3 months). Remember China will not verify a USA FAA Pilot certificate temporary. This means you will have to wait for the final cert. to verify which take 60 to 120 dys.
1) Valid original passport and copy
2) Valid original pilot license and copy
3) Valid original FAA Medical (Type I) and copy
4) Original Safety Security Letter (issued by former employer)
5) FAA No Accident Record (issued by local aviation management authority, which should be notarized)
6) “No Criminal Record” letter (issued by local police station)
a. The related authority in pilot’s home country or in his resident country can issue the “No Criminal Record” letter. (The record must be issued within 6 months of arrival date in China.) The record should be continuous.
b. The “No Criminal Record” letter should be notarized by Chinese embassy or consulate in USA or legal notary organ in USA
7) Original Logbooks.
8) Record of the latest proficiency check.
9) Certification of ICAO Test (or endorsement of language proficiency on pilot license)
10) Photos: 8 color photos (33mm X 48mm with a blue background)
11) Resume with continuous working experience. (Required for work permit)
12) Copy of diploma (highest attained)
13) If a family member will accompany you, supply copy of family member’s passport, marriage certificate and birth certificate of children younger than 18.
It is easier to bring the documents with you than trying to work from China getting them shipped via Fed-ex...!!!!
Good Luck...!!
