Au Pair in China - Application Process

In this section, we'd like to show you how you can apply for the Show pairs Au Pair in China program. We suggest that you apply as early as possible: register up to four months in advance. This is due to the fact that this program is offered across the western countries as well as due to the two-sided application process, which means that the Chinese host families have to apply, too. After a successful application both sides have to be matched; the host family and the au pair. Additionally it is necessary to register for the university and to go through the standard visa formalities, which also requires some time.
