 Separate from the multi-generation Chinese-Indian community, there are an estimated 5–7,000 Chinese expatriates living in India as of 2015, who generally work on 2- to 3-year contracts for the growing number of Chinese brands and companies doing business in India.The first record of travel from China is provided in the travelogue of Faxian (Fa-Hien) who visited Tampralipta, in what is now Tamluk in the 5th century AD.Records of immigration for the next sixteen centuries are not reliable although many words in Bengali can be attributed to Chinese influences.
