Welcome to the InterNations Community for Expats in Shanghai!
Ni hao! We welcome you to our expats Shanghai community! The InterNations community aims to help you when moving to or settling in Shanghai: Connect with fellow expats in Shanghai, receive helpful advice and information about expat life in China and join our InterNations get-togethers to meet up with other expats from the international community in Shanghai.
A visit of our community for Mumbai expats is recommend if other InterNations chapters across Asia & Oceania are of interest for you. Or your next business trip takes you to our expat Bali chapter…
Enjoy your Expat Life in Shanghai
The "Paris Of The East" opens its intercultural doors to you, beginning with its attractions such as the Bund, the historic neighbourhood alongside Huangpu River and once the financial centre of the Far East,, the traditional celebration of China’s Qingming Festival, to savoring a dish of Peking duck & hot pot. The InterNations community for expats in Shanghai offers insider tips and opportunities to ensure that you can make the most of your life as an expat in China. Our members are looking forward to offer their advice and knowledge from experience when you come across one of the many questions about life as an expat in Shanghai, from ʺWhere can I take a crash course in Chinese writing?ʺ to ʺIs the smog in cities like Beijing or Shanghai a serious health risk?ʺ
Join our Shanghai Expats Community
Our members hail from Canada, Austria, Argentina, the USA and nearly every other country from around the world, all of whom are living the expat life in Shanghai, just like you. InterNations offers a platform with which you can easily meet other Shanghai expats. In addition to our lively online community, our members regularly get together at our InterNations events or take part in planning trips together, e.g. stopping by China’s cultural destinations in the deltas of China's two major rivers, the Huang He and Yangtze.
Also get to know InterNations worldwide and have a look at expats in Malta or any other of the over 250 communities.
We cordially invite you to take part: Our expats in the Shanghai community are friendly and will be happy to welcome you as a new member. Just ask for your personal invitation and you’ll be warmly welcomed by our Shanghai expats community!
