The two largest global economies-the US and China-stand in stark contrast with their current immigration policies. The US is moving towards restrictive measures, potentially hindering employers’ efforts to recruit and relocate foreign talent. China has taken a more open approach, resulting in a significant increase in foreign national travelers and policies streamlining work authorization for foreign national employees. But even China’s welcoming stance may not be sufficient to lure back foreign nationals to work long-term as trade wars and geopolitical tensions could cast a shadow over business with the outside world. In this Mobility Minute video chat, our Global Immigration and Mobility attorneys delve into the current immigration landscape in China and the US, discussing potential shifts that could impact employers in the near future and offering key considerations for navigating the present climate in both countries.
