To employers,
responsible agencies, and foreign talents concerned:
各用人單位、各受理機構，外籍人才：
Considering the recent grim situation of the epidemic, in order to fulfill the requirements of epidemic prevention, continuously optimize the business environment, ensure people』s health and foreigners』 work in Beijing, we adopt the following measures to facilitate Foreigner』s Work Permit service.
由於近期疫情形勢嚴峻，為落實好疫情防控要求，持續優化營商環境，保障辦事群眾身體健康和外籍申請人在京、來京順利工作，現就外國人來華工作許可服務事項實行以下便利化措施：
First, tax records can be exempted. In applications for permit extension, cancellation, and other matters that involve salary commitments, foreign applicants who cannot go to the tax bureaus to get the required tax records due to Covid-19 can upload an explanation in the online system and promise to cooperate with the authorities in possible checks later. Meanwhile foreign applicants still need to provide the screenshot of personal tax withholding details from the Natural Person Electronic Tax Bureau (Withholding End).
一、免提供納稅記錄。涉及薪資承諾事項，需提供外籍申請人納稅記錄，但因疫情無法前往稅務局開具的，在系統中上傳情況說明，並承諾配合此後抽查，可免提供;但需上傳自然人電子稅務局(扣繳端)個人扣繳明細查詢的截屏。
Second, the Online Approval Process for Foreigner』s Work Permit is expanded. Besides work permit extension, information change, cancellation, reissue, change of employers, and the application for work permit after entry, foreign high-end Talents』 (Category A) applications in China (except those scoring 85 points and above in Category A) can also be handled online. Applicants do not need to make a trip to the responsible agency to submit the documents required.
二、深化實施「不見面」審批。在原先工作許可延期、信息變更、註銷、補辦、境內變換用人單位、入境後申領工作許可證全程網辦基礎上，增加外國高端人才(A類)境內新辦業務全程網辦(85積分A類除外)。
Third, chip data update of foreigner』s work permit on-site at the premises of the responsible agency can be deferred. After the application is approved, the employer can download from the system the Decision on Approval of Administrative License with the electronic seal of the government authorities concerned. And the QR code information on foreigner』s work permit will be updated synchronously. In principle, the chip data should be updated on-site at the premises of the responsible agency. Considering the grim situation of the epidemic, employers and foreign talents can defer the chip update until the epidemic is alleviated.
三、可延緩前往受理機構更新外國人工作許可證芯片。 業務決定通過後，用人單位可在系統自行下載帶有決定機構電子印章的《准予行政許可決定書》，外國人工作許可證上的二維碼信息也已同步更新;原則上芯片也應至受理機構現場更新，但考慮疫情形勢嚴峻，用人單位和外籍人才可延緩更新芯片，等疫情緩解再至現場更新。
Fourth, the electronic signature of a foreign applicant on application documents is accepted. The applicant can provide his or her electronic signature on application documents such as the labor contract, employment separation certificate and application form. Both the employer and the applicant shall be responsible for the authenticity and legality of the electronic signature.
四、認可申請文件上外籍申請人的電子簽名。勞動合同、離職證明、申請表等申請文件上可提供外籍申請人的電子簽名，用人單位和外籍申請人應對電子簽名的真實性、合法性負責。
Fifth, the scope of simultaneous work and residence permit application is expanded. We further implement the policy that allows applicants to submit the applications for work and residence permits at the same counter and collect both permits simultaneously, and expand the scope of the service from foreign high-end talents (Category A) to foreign professionals (Category B). The service is now available at 8 district-level counters citywide. For more information, please visit the 「Work Permit for Foreigners in China」 section on the website of Beijing Overseas Talents Center (https://www.8610hr.cn/).
五、擴大「兩證聯辦」政策服務範圍。進一步實行外國人來華工作、居留許可「一窗受理，同時取證」，將政策服務範圍從外國高端人才(A類)擴大至外國專業人才(B類)，目前全市8個區級「兩證聯辦」窗口均可辦理。詳情請登錄北京海外學人中心網站(https://www.8610hr.cn/)「外國人來華工作許可」專欄查詢。
Under the guidance of Beijing Municipal Talent Work Bureau, Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission, Administrative Commission of Zhongguancun Science Park, and Beijing Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, Beijing Overseas Talents Center will respond to the needs of employers and foreign applicants in a timely manner and provide high-quality and efficient services.北京海外學人中心將在市人才工作局、市科委中關村管委會、市人力資源和社會保障局的指導下，及時回應用人單位和外籍申請人的需求，切實提供更加優質高效的服務。
