If you have had any experience getting a replacement res. permit, please let me know how you went about it. I have just realized mine was missing while packing for an extended stay out of the country. My visa in my passport is 4 months expired and I can't afford the hefty fine that would present at the airport. This time in China, I never got a green book. Instead, I got a little insert thingy of a res. permit in my red book. That, worthless as it is, I still have. The one I desperately need was probably tossed away when cleaning out clutter from my desk.

If you can share any information on the possibility of getting a replacement as well as the time it takes to do so, I would be forever grateful.

This is offered as your proof of English expertise? Watch your capitalization and comma usage, friend.

If you were not sarcastically making fun of my sloppy grammar, I am sorry. Yes I am an English teacher. The "insert thingy of a res. permit" was a two paged, thin papered insert I received inside of my expert certificate.

I also did not get a green book this year in guangdong... I just got a little insert thingy, green in color that says" temporary residence permit" on the front page... Maybe this is what you got also???...

It takes between 1-3 days to get a new one issued, depending on your schools connections with the PSB...

Good luck,
Phil
P.S. The residence book is being phased out and replaced with a sticker in your passport that also serves as a multi-entry Z visa....
