below it is about Q&A foreigners arrival China regarding Registration Within 24 Hours for your reference.
question Hello sir,
I am writing to seek clarification on several issues related to the “Registration for Foreigners Checking In Within 24 Hours”:
1.Can the community police office in a metropolitan area (eg. Chongqing) handle the “foreigner accommodation” registration?
2.How can foreigners be informed about changes in registration addresses?
3.How long does it take for a foreigner to complete the registration at the police station?
4.Will foreigners be informed upon entry about the penalties for not registering within 24 hours?
5.Where is the fine of 10,000 yuan for failing to register within 24 hours stipulated?
Does Article 39 of the “Exit and Entry Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China” notify the “person accommodating” that they must register within 24 hours when the foreigner enters the country?
6.If a foreigner arrives late at night, on weekends, or is unaware of changes in the registration address, and the registration exceeds 24 hours but is within 48 hours, what penalties will the “person accommodating” face?
Thank you very much!
Response from immigration:
We have received your inquiry provide the following brief response based on the information provided:
Article 39, Clause 2 of the “Exit and Entry Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China” stipulates that foreigners residing or staying in places other than hotels must register with the public security organ at their place of residence within 24 hours of check-in, either by themselves or by the accommodating person. Article 76, Clause 1, Item 6 stipulates that those who fail to report foreigner accommodation registration information to the public security organ as required will be given a warning; if the circumstances are serious, a fine of between 1,000 and 5,000 yuan will be imposed. Based on the aforementioned legal provisions, the public security organ legally conducts accommodation registration management for foreigners coming to China, including overseas Chinese. Foreigners residing in scattered communities can register their accommodation not only at the local police station but also through community police offices and foreigner service stations. For those who do not register as required by law, the public security organ will handle the situation accordingly.
For specific details, you can consult the local public security organ’s entry and exit administration department or call the 12367 hotline.Thank you.
