上海發布外國人永久居留新政策

近日，上海發布人才新政。新政策最大亮點是關于海外人才認定標準的規定，取消就業單位類別和職務級別限制、放寬居住時限要求、掛鉤工資和稅收。明確了工資性年收入達到60萬元人民幣以上，且年繳納個人所得稅達到12萬元人民幣以上的在滬就業外國人，在上海已經連續工作滿4年，每年在中國境內居住累計不少于6個月，經所在單位推薦，就可以申請永久居留，即俗稱“中國綠卡”。

New changes in policies regarding green cards for foreign talents have taken effect in Shanghai.The main highlight of the new policies is that the standard for recognizing foreign talents has become simpler. Prior limitations regarding certain work classifi cations and ranks have been cancelled and have been replaced by limits regarding yearly salary and tax amounts instead. Now the definition is a much more straightforward one: a foreign worker in Shanghai whose yearly wage surpasses 600k RMB and whose taxes surpass 120k RMB. Workers who have lived in Shanghai for four years that fulfill these requirements can now apply for permanent residency, also known as a green card.
