Two major changes in the Visa Entry and Exit Laws took effect july 1, 2013.
The new law requires registration within 24 hours of arrival.
The penalty has been increased from 500 rmb on the first offense to a whooping 2-10,000 rmb.
Who decides the fine amount is unclear. It is assumed the local authorities will have control over that decision since they retain a major portion of the fine.
It is unclear how this effects visa and registration renewal.
There will be no negotiating the imposed fine. Without a documented registration and/or work permit, any illegal alien is subject to immediate deportation without the possibility of legal entry in the future. Any fine imposed by the authorities must be paid before exiting the country.
A citizen who knowingly aids, abetes or assists in any form, an illegal alien to find employment or shelter will be fined, jailed or both.
Persons harboring or hiding foreigners who illegally enter or reside in China, or assisting such foreigners in evading inspection, or providing, in violation of the law, exit/entry documents for foreigners who illegally reside in China shall be fined not less than RMB 2,000 but not more than RMB 10,000; where circumstances are serious, such persons shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than fifteen days and shall also be fined not less than RMB 5,000 but not more than RMB 20,000, with the illegal gains confiscated if there are any.
Entities engaging in any of the acts prescribed in the preceding paragraph shall be fined not less than RMB 10,000 but not more than RMB 50,000, with the illegal gains confiscated if there are any; and the persons in charge of the entities who are directly responsible and other persons directly responsible shall be punished in accordance with the provisions in the preceding paragraph.
