Aturan magang bagi mahasiswa internasional di Shanghai dan Beijing diperjelas

Shanghai and Beijing authorities have restated the national framework governing off-campus work by international students. Students holding a study residence permit may undertake part-time work or an internship only where the university approves, the employer or internship organisation provides supporting documentation, and the local exit-entry administration bureau adds an annotation to the residence permit recording the location and duration of the activity.

The one-academic-year minimum before eligibility is applied consistently, and municipal guidance generally caps term-time work at around eight hours per week, with more permitted during holidays. Curricular internships arranged by the university are treated separately.

Students are advised to begin the approval process at the start of the academic year rather than when an opportunity arises, because the paperwork takes several weeks.
