New version of Foreign Permanent Resident ID Card put into use

The new version of China's Foreign Permanent Resident ID Card was officially issued and put into use on Friday. Due to the incorporation of the five-star elements, the new version of the permanent residence permit is also referred to as the "Five-Star Card".

According to the National Immigration Administration, these individuals come from over 20 countries, including the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom, who have made outstanding contributions to China's economic, educational, technological, cultural and healthcare development.

Many permanent resident foreigners also came to inquire about the renewal of their cards at entry and exit administration departments in places such as Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and cities in Guangdong province.
