Nobody told us these before we landed 😅 Save this so you don't learn them the hard way 🔖
1️⃣ Your phone number is your ID. Bring your passport for the SIM.
2️⃣ Almost nobody pays with cash. Set up WeChat Pay and Alipay before you fly.
3️⃣ Not staying in a hotel? Register your address at the local police station within 24 hours.
4️⃣ Google, WhatsApp and Instagram don't work on local networks. Download WeChat, Alipay, Amap, DiDi and a translator first.
5️⃣ On an X1 or Z visa? Apply for your residence permit within 30 days of arrival.
Which one caught you off guard? Tell us below 👇
📤 Send this to someone moving to China this year.
➕ Follow @hafrikapp for more China-life tips, and ask Africans in your city on Hafrik. Link in bio / hafrik.com

New in China? Don't let a scam be your welcome gift 🚨
Many of us learned these the hard way. Here's what to watch for:
1️⃣ "Agents" who want a big deposit before you've seen the house. View it in person, and only pay against a signed contract.
2️⃣ Suppliers whose prices are far below everyone else's. Visit the shop or factory, or use a trusted agent, before you pay.
3️⃣ Anyone offering a "special visa" or work permit shortcut. Only trust official channels.
4️⃣ Strangers asking you to receive money or parcels for them. Say no.
5️⃣ Fake currency exchange deals on WeChat. Use banks or trusted platforms.
6️⃣ Pressure to "pay now or lose the deal." Real deals can wait a day.
When in doubt, ask people who live here. On Hafrik you can check a business or ask your city Space before you send a single yuan.
Stay safe, and share this with someone new 🙏
