Lawyer in China
Over the past decades, the Chinese economy has been experiencing its greatest development. That is why this country is becoming attractive for investment and business expansion. According to statistics, as of today, up to 100 thousand Ukrainians are living in the territory of the People’s Republic of China. Most often, our fellow citizens choose China for the opportunity to study and find employment.
While in another country, it is worth knowing the intricacies of its legislation. This will help to avoid problems with the law. The help of a lawyer in China will also be useful.
Features of entering China
First of all, let us note that Ukrainians will not be able to enter China without a visa. Ukrainians are not accepted as refugees in this country. That is why the same entry rules apply to our fellow citizens as to citizens of other countries.
Let us consider in more detail the procedure for obtaining a visa. To obtain a permit to enter China, Ukrainians will need to contact the China Visa Center, which is located in Warsaw. There is no such center in Ukraine. All documents are submitted directly by the person wishing to obtain a visa. Among the basic documents:
- Visa form. Confirmation of registration in the Unified System of the Immigration Service of the People’s Republic of China.
- Original passport and copies of all pages.
- Electronic photo and 2 color printed photos of the established sample.
You will also need a bank certificate to confirm the applicant’s solvency. The minimum amount that must be in the person’s bank account is 1,500 US dollars.
Important: all listed documents must be translated into Chinese or English (without notarization).
It is quite difficult to independently prepare and correctly execute documents for obtaining a visa to China. This process can be significantly simplified by legal support from immigration specialists of our law firm “Prikhodko & Partners”.
It should be noted that forgery of documents when crossing the Chinese border threatens with criminal liability.
How can a criminal lawyer help in China?
Defense in criminal proceedings in China is a critically important issue for Ukrainians. This is due to the fact that the Chinese legal system has significant differences from the European one. In particular, the legislation of this state is quite complex and is combined with cruelty in determining the degree of responsibility under most articles. That is why it is worth enlisting the support of lawyers who specialize in international law and have practical experience in China.
Although significant progress has been made in recent years in terms of transparency of the legal system of the People’s Republic of China, it remains centralized and is under 100% state control.
Criminal proceedings can be quite harsh. In particular, a number of crimes are punishable by long imprisonment, and in some cases, the death penalty. Far from all cases, the rights of the accused in China meet Western standards. This is especially true for cases related to drug trafficking, fraud, etc. Thus, timely and effective protection from the lawyers of “Prykhodko & Partners” will be the right decision.
Our lawyers, as representatives of an international law firm, specialize in criminal defense issues and offer a diverse range of services for Ukrainian citizens facing criminal prosecution in China. Among such services:
- Comprehensive legal support.
- Consulting adapted to each specific situation and case.
- Representation of the interests of a person at all stages of the criminal process.
How much do lawyer services cost in China?
It is quite difficult to answer this question unequivocally. The formation of the cost of lawyer services in China is influenced by a number of factors:
- The complexity of the case (for example, criminal proceedings).
- Available terms.
- Region of China.
