Immigrating to the United Kingdom requires careful reading of the UK Living guide: As the New Year approaches, to assist Chinese nationals in the UK in celebrating the holiday safely and joyfully, the Chinese Embassy in the United Kingdom reminds Chinese citizens in the UK:
1. Recently, the UK has experienced frequent rain and strong winds, with the UK Met Office issuing multiple extreme weather warnings. Many areas have suffered from flooding, affecting transportation, electricity, and resulting in casualties. Chinese citizens in the UK should pay attention to keeping warm and preventing illness; check the safety of their residences and vehicles, promptly address any issues, and ensure comfort and safety at home and during travel; be aware of how weather changes may impact public transportation, and adjust travel times and methods accordingly.
2. Recently, many Chinese students in the UK have taken the opportunity of the Christmas holiday to travel to other European countries. Some students may have inadvertently failed to carry their residence permits or have lost their documents and belongings due to theft in the destination country, forcing them to remain there or return to China to reapply for their return to the UK, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, causing significant disruption to their studies and lives. Therefore, those traveling to other countries must take good care of important identification documents such as passports, identity cards, and residence permits to prevent loss or theft.
3. Pay attention to civil behavior, respect others, adhere to public order and codes of conduct, communicate calmly in case of issues, drink in moderation, avoid losing composure or causing disputes with others, and refrain from drinking and driving.
4. In case of emergencies, please call the police promptly. The emergency police and medical assistance number in the UK is: 999.
