Have a passport copy ready, and together with FEC should be OK for ID.

 

Banks usually require both documents, but railway tickets should be possible with passport photo-copy.

 

In Hotels, you'll have problems with check-in despite both documents handy.

I think so, I was once at work and needed identification for something or other and I forgot my passport.

 

I went to HR and they had my Alien Employment License which is this purplish passport looking thing on file and it worked ok for whatever I was doing. Buying a sim card maybe?

 

I'm not 100% sure but i think an FEC is just the teacher version of an AEL so it should do the same thing. The only thing is those are kinda ghetto looking. The photo is there but it's not laminated or anything.

A:Good question!  I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
