What do I need to know before retiring in Beijing?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Beijing, they said...
"Before retiring in Beijing, an expat should research potential healthcare options, as international health insurance may not be accepted or comprehensive enough. A residency permit is also necessary to stay long-term in Beijing, and the process to obtain one can vary. Cultural barriers can also present a challenge; expats should look into classes or language exchanges to help them build a community. Additionally, expats may need to learn how to use common Chinese payment methods, such as WeChat Pay or Alipay, in order to make purchases and pay bills. Finally, expats should consider their air quality needs, as Beijing is known to have high smog levels throughout the year," said a member in Beijing, China, China.
