Expert Info

I need to renew my residence permit and am Hep B positive, I've read conflicting reports on whether they test you for this still, and whether if you do test positive you will be deported. Can any expats who have been through this before advise?

Haven't had the experience myself, but as far as I can tell they only test people applying for certain categories for Hepatits B: babysitters, housemaids, nursery and kindergarten employees, employees at barber shops, health clubs and restaurants.
