Does Xinjiang need a residence permit to live in Beijing for a long time?

Need. According to relevant public information, people who come to Beijing for the first time should apply for temporary residence permits, and those who live for a long time should also apply for residence permits. Through this system, they can help local people manage foreigners effectively and control the population size. Residence permit is an attempt made by some developed cities in China to learn from the "green card" system of developed countries, which has accumulated experience for China to formulate skilled migration measures and eventually form the national "green card" system of China.
