This is actually connected to teaching- I'm heading in on an L-visa and having it changed to a Z-visa. The question is... to get an L-visa, do you need tickets to and from China? Since I'll be there for a year, and I might not even fly back from the same country, it seems the best idea would be just getting a 1-way ticket into China, but does this cut the mustard for those wonderful embassy in the officials? (I'm in the UK, so it'd be the Chinese Embassy in London*)
*which is impossible to reach by phone, hence asking you people |

The Chinese have NEVER asked me whether I had a plane ticket in or in and out of their country.
It would be silly as you can arrive there on foot, by plane, bike, riding on horseback, or even by that unfashionable mode of travelling - the aeroplane.
Don't worry - if they have to repatriate you they will get the money from your country's embassy. |
