Beijing launches 'service package' for foreign experts and overseas talents to support international organizations' development

On March 30, at the 2025 ZGC Forum Annual Conference—Beijing International Youth Innovation and Development Forum, Beijing Overseas Talents Center, in collaboration with Beijing General Station of Exit and Entry Frontier Inspection, Beijing Association for Science and Technology, Exit-Entry Administration Bureau of Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau, Beijing Foreign Enterprise Human Resources Service Co Ltd and Beijing Haidian District Committee of the Communist Party of China and its People's Government, jointly unveiled the "Service Package for Foreign Experts and Overseas Talents in International Organizations Based in Beijing".

The package introduces 14 innovative measures focusing on four key areas: exit-entry facilitation, international exchanges, talent attraction, and integration services. These initiatives provide comprehensive support for international talents throughout their journey—from initial arrival to long-term settlement in Beijing—embodying the spirit of "Beijing Welcomes You" while facilitating the development of international organizations in the capital.

Under the new "Service Package", foreign experts invited to Beijing by international organizations will benefit from facilitated customs clearance and streamlined exit-entry policies. International science and technology organizations conducting exchange activities in Beijing will receive multi-dimensional support.

The package also provides comprehensive career services, supporting Beijing-based experts and scholars in assuming positions in international science and technology organizations, recommending outstanding university students for internships and supporting applications for government-sponsored overseas study programs.

In terms of talent attraction, returnees employed by international organizations can apply for Work-Residence Permit for Overseas Returnees and talent attraction programs. Foreign talents will also enjoy a range of integrated services, including cultural exchange initiatives, medical subsidies, health management, training programs, employment and entrepreneurship support and daily life facilitation services.

Established in 2021, the YID Forum has successfully hosted three annual editions and has emerged as a vital platform for international youth talent exchanges and policy announcements in Beijing. The forum aims to gather youth innovators, stimulate their innovation vitality, build consensus for promoting global innovation resource sharing and support the global development of international young talents.
