Online accommodation registration piloted for foreigners

China on Friday launched a pilot online accommodation registration service for foreigners staying in places other than hotels, in a move aimed at making life easier for overseas visitors and residents.

The service took effect on Friday in seven provincial-level regions — Hebei, Liaoning, Zhejiang, Hubei, Guangxi, Chongqing and Sichuan — and will be expanded nationwide in phases based on the pilot results, the National Immigration Administration said.

According to China's Exit and Entry Administration Law, hotels have to register accommodation for foreign guests. Foreigners staying elsewhere — including private homes, guesthouses, inns, boat houses or tents — have to register within 24 hours of arrival. Previously, the process typically required a visit to the local police station.

Under the new pilot program, registration can be completed online and carries the same legal validity as an in-person filing.

The registration can be completed through the NIA Government Service Platform website, the NIA 12367 app, and the 12367 mini programs on WeChat and Alipay. Either the foreign guest or the host can submit the registration.

For first-time filings, hosts are expected to assist the visitor because they are often more familiar with the process. Foreigners may file on their own if they have previously registered online for the same residence or are staying in a home they own in China. Hosts can be Chinese citizens or foreign nationals.

The policy also exempts some foreigners from repeat registrations. Those who return to the same self-owned home in China after domestic or overseas travel, or holders of residence permits or permanent residence cards returning to the same habitual residence during the validity period of their document, do not need to register again. A self-owned residence refers to a home owned in China by the foreigner or the foreigner's spouse, while a habitual residence refers to a place where the foreigner lives or plans to live for more than 180 days.

Offline registration channels remain available too. Users can consult the online guide or call the 12367 hotline for assistance.

For many foreigners, the change addresses a practical aspect of staying with family or friends rather than in hotels in China.

Jenny Zhang, a 23-year-old China-born US citizen, said she had completed the process offline in the past and found it time-consuming, as it involved a trip to the local police station and long waits.

"The most significant difference is the level of convenience," Zhang said. "The online system will allow me to complete the entire process remotely, eliminating the need for travel and in-person waiting."

She said the change is especially helpful for people like her who often stay with friends or relatives in China. It also simplifies the process of obtaining proof of registration for visa extensions and other procedures, reducing both time and logistical burdens, she added.

Nadine Trirana Khong, a 19-year-old from Indonesia, said the new policy will be particularly useful for newcomers. Once accommodation registration is completed, she said, it becomes easier to handle other necessities of daily life such as applying for a bank card or SIM card, while also streamlining visa-related procedures.

She hopes the service will eventually be rolled out nationwide and become more seamless, with features such as online customer support and better information sharing.

The new service is part of broader efforts to improve government services for foreigners living, studying and working in China. The NIA said those who fail to complete accommodation registration as required may receive a warning or, in some cases, be fined under Chinese law.
