1. Identity. You can go to your employer, or you can go to the local public security bureau or civil affairs bureau. (You need to have a house to live in and a job in one place.) \r\n2. To change your household registration name, go directly to the local police station (which specializes in household registration name change). \r\n\r\n\r\nWhat are the regulations for citizens to change their name, date of birth, ethnicity, etc.? \r\nCitizens' household registration change registration is a registration carried out due to changes in objective circumstances in order to make the original registration content consistent with the actual situation. \r\n Household registration has legal effect. Changes can only be made by applying to the household registration department in accordance with the law. Citizens cannot make changes on their own \r\n. (1) Name change. The name change of a preschool child can be applied for verbally, which is left to the police themselves. Children over 10 years old must obtain their consent, and adults must submit a written application by themselves. Citizens who have entered school and are 16 years old must change their names for approval by the director of the police station. After the age of 16, you must submit a written application and submit valid certification materials to the public security authority for review and approval. \r\nThose who have been deprived of political rights in accordance with the law and are undergoing criminal punishment and reeducation through labor may not change their names. After a citizen changes his or her name in accordance with the law, the original name will be kept as the "former name" for future reference. (2) Change of date of birth. Citizens who apply to change their date of birth should present a valid birth certificate or a certificate from a notary public. The change can only be approved after being investigated by the police and found to be true. (3) Changes in ethnic composition. The household registration authority can handle the change procedures based on the official certificate issued by the ethnic affairs department at or above the county level. The National Ethnic Affairs Commission stipulates the restoration or correction of ethnic identity. Individual applicants shall be reviewed by the county-level ethnic affairs department; applicants with a considerable number of households in one village or street shall be reviewed by the prefectural (city)-level ethnic affairs department. Approval; if there is a large-scale mass demand, the relevant provincial departments will conduct an investigation, and the people's government at the same level will submit the decision to the State Council for approval. If a person requires the restoration or correction of ethnic identity after passing a generation, the ethnic identity of his or her parents should first be changed, and then the ethnic identity of the person himself should be changed; if the parents are deceased, the ethnic identity of the biological grandparent or maternal grandparent can be used\r \nThe identity can be changed by the individual's choice; if the biological grandparent or biological maternal grandparent is deceased, the ethnic composition will no longer be changed vertically or horizontally. If people of different ethnic groups request to change the ethnic group of their children due to adoption or parental marriage, adults should not change it. Minor children can be selected by both parents through negotiation. \r\n\r\nYou write a name change application to the police station where your household registration is located. After it is stamped, go to the household registration section of the local public security bureau to register. Of course, you must bring your household registration book. It will take about 15 or 7 working days after the file is submitted to be officially changed. Your previous name and current name will be written in the household registration book. When you need to use your diploma or something to prove your identity, you must bring your household registration book with you.
