Is there really a black list in china that prevents someone to enter the country and even work?
My previous employer threatened me to denounce me and put me on a black list .
thanks
Hi
If someone do something that's harmful to China or has criminal backgroud will put on black list.
Usually,this won't happen,I think your previous employer has threatened you.

Of course there is. Every country has one.
I don't think your employer can do anything, though. Perhaps they mean having you put on the Foreign Experts Administration blacklist. That would be a little bit easier, but they still need a good reason. That could keep you from getting any jobs with government schools at least.

what do you think of that ?
what is a government school?
thanks .
What did the people do that made the school upset?
A government school is one owned by the government. :duh:

Other than having their visa cancelled, I think the only thing the school can do is try and have them blacklisted by the State Administration of Foreign Experts and / or the regional education department.

what does it mean ? Is it impossible to work anymore in china? is it a bluff?
what if they want to work in another province ?
It could be a bluff. Or it may not be.
The worst is that they could prevent them from working at any government (public) school.
Hello gbill. I am in a similar situation where I left a school and they threatened to blacklist me. I posted a thread on this and someone responded mentioning to me that he knew people who couldn't even get into China for 7 years because I guess they pissed off the wrong guy and although he was just working for a private language school in Hubei...he apparently had enough clout with the government to screw them over. He told me that they were denied from even getting tourist visas. Scary stuff. I left a pretty big school called Web English and I am worried that if a small school in Hubei can do that...then I guess I might be out of China for 7 years. What are the chances that they actually blacklisted me? They did have me on a Z visa and I had the foreign expert's certificate. In fact, I even have it with me here in the US! Not that I will try bringing it back to China with me. I will also not attempt to apply for a tourist visa until my Z visa with them expires in March. I even thought about buying a brand new passport so that none of my old visas will see seen(if this is possible).

I think at this point the only way to see if you are blacklisted is by trying to apply for another visa or risk trying to re-enter on your current unexpired visa.
In order to really ban someone it would take a lot of clout or some strong motivation on the part of the PSB. If you are banned, I suppose your idea of obtaining a new passport might work, but now that most PSB visa records are maintained online I wonder if getting a hit on name and DOB they might just not compare photographs -- your passport picture with the one of yours they have in their visa files.
I would imagine if you did a legal name change and then obtained a new passport that would work.

Well I also plan to get a new passport not only for this, but because my current one is damaged. If they are suspicious of me...couldn't I just tell them that I got a new passport because my old one was either lost or damaged? I can't imagine them thinking it is a lie because this is a common problem. My plan was to apply for a tourist visa a little while after my work visa expires to let things "cool off" I guess. It would be ironic if getting a new passport ruined the whole thing if they compare like you said...but then again if I successfully get the tourist visa, then I have nothing really to worry about.

I'm not sure, but I know they can pull up old visa records on their system and see your photo. So, I think -- but, again, not sure -- that they could put your name and date of birth into the system and see if a visa photo comes up. They could compare it with your current passport photo and if the same, maybe deny you a visa if, indeed, you are on the blacklist.
Again, this is in theory. Not sure if they would actually do that or not.

Why not face the situation and ascertain the factual position ?
Getting a New Passport is not a solution ( unless you change all basic data i.e. Name / Father's Name / Date of Birth / Place of Birth ).
As for existing visa "status", you may check it up with CHINESE EMBASSY / Consulate in your country ( or, in any other country, if you are a traveler) - all systems are online, they can easily tell you the present status of the visa already stamped in your passport. If the visa is valid and "clear", you have no issue.
If otherwise, they should be able to tell you the reasons ( for black listing etc.), and how to work around them.

Yes thanks I hope I have good luck too. I would not just be getting a new passport to avoid trouble, because if I have been blacklisted, I am sure they would know its me from their records. I was just thinking it might help me, but the main reasons for me getting a new passport are because my current one is all mangled and I only have 1 blank page left.
