What conditionsmust be met to obtain it?

必须满足什么条件才能获得？

Let's take Shanghaias an example. Foreigners must have lived in Shanghai for more thansix months, have had no criminal convictions, and have a Chineseresidence permit in order to apply for a certificate of no criminalrecord in the city.

我们以上海为例。外国人必须在上海居住6个月以上，没有刑事犯罪记录，并持有中国居留证，才能申请在上海无犯罪记录证明。

Generally speaking,only foreigners holding z-work visa, X1 visa, or J1 resident presscard will have a residence permit in China and can apply for acertificate of no criminal record in China.

一般来说，只有持Z工作签证、X1签证或J1居民记者证的外国人才能获得在中国的居留许可，并且可以申请在中国无犯罪记录证明。

Note, differentcities have different regulations...

注意，不同的城市有不同的规定..

For example, inBeijing, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan, Shenyang, and other cities, theexit-entry management center of the public security bureau isresponsible for issuing a crime-free certificate, but it cannotbe used directly after being issued. The certificate needs to benotarized at the local notary office first.

例如，在北京、深圳、广州、佛山、沈阳等城市，公安机关出入境管理中心负责发放无犯罪证件，但发放后不能直接使用。证书需要首先在当地的公证处进行公证。

However, for othercities, such as Shanghai, NCRs are directly issued by the notaryoffice without needing to go to the immigration center or policestation.

然而，对于其他城市，如上海，NCRs是直接由公证处签发，无需到移民中心或派出所。

Are thesecertificates indicative of no criminal convictions across the wholeof China?

这些证明是否意味着整个中国没有犯罪记录？

China's certificateof no criminal record is not managed by the central management systembut implemented by the local public security bureau, police station,or notary office.

中国的无犯罪记录证明不是由中央管理系统管理，而是由当地公安局、派出所或公证处实施。

Therefore, in mostcases, the certificate of no criminal record only means that there isno criminal record certificate in a certain city, and does not coverthe whole territory of China.

因此，在大多数情况下，无犯罪记录证明只意味着某个城市没有犯罪记录证明，并不覆盖中国全境。

However, anNCR certificate issued by the Shanghai Notary Office willindicate that the foreign applicant has no criminal record during hisstay in China, covering the whole territory of China.

但是，由上海公证处签发的不符合国籍证书将表明外国申请人在中国境内没有犯罪记录，覆盖中国全境。
