Common questions

How can I move to China?
The catalogue covers these routes: visa applications. The reference section describes 13 relocation programmes in total, with official conditions and links to government sources. Which route fits depends on whether you have a job, a business, property or relatives in the country - we'll go through it on a free consultation and pick the one that works.
What services can I arrange in China?
1 option across 5 areas: visa applications, crypto exchange, flights, short-term stays, car rental, VPN abroad, health insurance, buying and 3 more. Every option comes with a price, a timeline and the scope of work; the provider is a licensed local expert.
Can services in China be arranged remotely, without flying in?
No: this service requires you to be there in person - usually for biometrics, a signature at the bank or filing at a consulate. What exactly has to be done in person is covered on a free consultation before any work starts.
What does a consultation cost, and is there a markup on top?
The consultation is free and commits you to nothing. You sign the contract directly with the expert and pay their official price list - Pactors adds no markup and takes no commission from you.
Can I enter China visa-free with an APEC card?
Yes. APEC card holders get visa-free business entry to China - up to 60 days per visit, plus fast-track border control at airports. The card is arranged separately and also works in 17 other APEC economies.
