Legal basis:
"Regulations on Household Registration in People's Republic of China (PRC)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Regulations") Article 19 If a citizen changes his household registration due to marriage, divorce, adoption, claim, household division, merger, disappearance, withdrawal or other reasons, the head of the household or himself shall declare the change of registration to the household registration authority.
Derivative problem:
Does the renaming of universities have a big impact? If you want to change your name during college, you must first report to the school registration department, because some schools are not allowed to change their names. The Ministry of Education implements electronic diploma registration for all enrolled students. When students graduate, they will check the list of graduates with the list when enrolling students, and issue graduation certificates, with the aim of ensuring the authenticity of graduation certificates. Restricting the school name change can effectively prevent the phenomenon of false identity admission and back door entry. The name on the student status is based on the ID number and household registration book. After the school agrees to change its name, it can start to change its ID card and household registration book.
