Household registration, also known as hukou, refers to the legal documents made by the state administrative organs responsible for household registration management to record and retain the basic information of the registered population. It is also the identification of each of our citizens. It is the basic legal document to determine the legal status of natural persons as civil subjects.

2. Native place, also known as ancestral home or native place, generally refers to the long-term residence or birthplace of grandfather and paternal ancestors. The origin is the original origin. According to the document [1995]9 1 issued by the Ministry of Public Security, a citizen's native place should be his grandfather's place of residence (domicile) when he was born.

3. Home address refers to the address registered in the household registration book or ID card. Current address refers to the address of the place where you live now. If your residential address has not changed, just fill in the same content. The registered permanent residence is the address in your registered permanent residence book, and the home address is the address where you actually live now. These two addresses can also be at the same address.
