Yes. Well the specific term they use translates to ‘foreign resident’ (外国居民) but it’s a different word from ‘immigrant’ (移民). (The actual translation of ‘expatriate’ is 外派人员, but it’s not a word that you’ll find on official documents anywhere. Bureaucratic language is always different from common language.)

To sum up, the officials don’t call you an expat. Thanks for finally clarifying that.
You really are a fatuous pedant, aren’t you?
