Temporary Residence Registration

临时住宿登记 · 新办

Every foreigner must register where they sleep — hotel, serviced apartment, or lease. It sounds minor until your residence permit application asks for the slip.

Landlords sometimes hesitate to register tenants because of tax concerns. We explain the process to them in Chinese and use the correct online or in-person channel for your district.

If you just arrived and are still in a hotel, the front desk usually registers you — but double-check you received the QR confirmation. We can verify it before you sign a lease.

This step is cheap and fast when done right; expensive when you discover it was never filed.

入住后 24 小时内须登记;租房需房东配合,我们可协助沟通。

酒店一般会代为登记,签约长租前建议确认登记已完成。
