Source: english.china.com; http://www.thatsmags.com
China has shortened the time required to verify diplomas obtained overseas, according to a statement from the Chinese Service Center for Scholarly Exchange.
The process for diplomas issued by American and Canadian universities will take no more than 10 working days compared with the previous limit of 20 working days, the center said Friday.
The verification of diplomas from a number of other countries can be completed within 15 working days, according to the center under the Ministry of Education.
By moving the process online, applicants will receive a digital certificate once they pass the examination.
The verification is required by many employers in China, especially public institutions.
学历认证：How to apply Diploma Verification for Chinese work permit?
As the new China Work Permit policy started on 1st April 2017, it’s become more troublesome and strict to apply for Work Permit. Some documents cost much more time than it did before, notarized diploma and Non-criminal record for instance. Both need to be notarized by either China embassy or your own country embassy based in China. Here is a guidance for you on how to prepare these documents.
The notoriously grueling work permit application process for foreigners in China just got a little easier.
The Ministry of Education's Overseas Students' Service Center announced the roll-out of a new online system for diploma verification Monday, marking an end to the days of expensive, transoceanic DHL fees and wasted afternoons spent in line outside consulates for aspiring foreign workers.
In the past, work permit applicants had to get a physical copy of their original diploma notarized in their home country and ‘apostilled’ for use in China before getting it authorized by Chinese consular officials in the country where the document was issued.
Some applicants were able to forgo some of these steps by
queuing with their diploma at their countries’ embassies in China,
before presenting the authorized document to officials at the Exit and
Entry Administration.
Under the new system, foreigners of any nationality can submit digital copies to the new verification website,
where they will be reviewed and (hopefully) approved in as little as 20
business days. Simply register with your name and passport number,
upload your documents and you’re good to go.
For the time
being, the online interface is only in Chinese, so the less literate
among us might need a hand to navigate the process.
Total service fees will set you back RMB360, not counting the delivery fee (RMB15-25 for mainland China and Hong Kong) for your physical authentication receipt, and is payable via any UnionPay bank card.
In addition to smoothing the road to legal status for foreign talent, authorities hope the new system will help limit the numbers forgeries and doctored diplomas that slip through, GD Today reports.
