Many Chinese who have come to Australia after a great deal of trouble will find a problem: it is easier to go to the world with an Australian passport, but it is more difficult to return home. As a foreigner, you must apply for a visa to enter China.
In addition, many domestic welfare benefits are no longer available.
In view of this, some Chinese naturalized in Australia are still trying to retain their Chinese passports, knowing that the Chinese government does not recognize dual nationality.
I do not know that such behavior will bring about serious consequences for themselves!
Recently, the Chinese embassy in the UK issued a special reminder that some applicants who have acquired foreign nationality and hold Chinese visas are suspected of defrauding Chinese passports.
For this part of the expatriate, the embassy has been dealt with in accordance with China's relevant policy and legal provisions.
Article 3 of the nationality Law of the people's Republic of China states that the people's Republic of China shall not recognize dual nationality.
Article 9 reads: Chinese nationals who settle in foreign countries who voluntarily join or acquire foreign nationality shall automatically lose their Chinese nationality.
For those who violate the rules, Chinese embassies abroad will cancel their documents and declare them invalid. The holder will be refused a visa or a refusal to enter the country.
Last year, China's customs introduced a number of new policies aimed at foreigners as more and more foreigners committed crimes in China.
In order to make it easier to manage and review the population in China, China Customs will keep fingerprints, irises, faces and other unique biometric information of foreigners entering the country, and then compare whether they are characteristic persons or not.
At present, the country's major customs has fully implemented this policy, China's customs inspection in the future will be more and more stringent.
All foreigners between the ages of 14 and 70 are subject to scrutiny and include Chinese nationals.
The rule is also considered to be a vane for a "double-nationality strike." If foreign Chinese are found to have "dual nationality" when they enter the country, they will be in great trouble.
According to Chinese law, Chinese who have entered foreign countries must immediately cancel their Chinese domicile.
Because in the processing of identity cards, fingerprint information will be archived in the public security department. When returning home by fingerprint, it is easy to find out if the household registration has been cancelled.
At present, after naturalization, there are some Chinese who, in order to facilitate their return home and enjoy preferential policies from other countries,
Can still live in the domestic development, enjoy domestic entrepreneurship, housing, education, pension and other welfare policies, and retain their own Chinese household registration.
Now, once a person with a foreign passport but no cancellation of Chinese domicile is found, the holder will be temporarily banned from leaving the country. Only after returning to the original place of residence to cancel the Chinese domicile before leaving the country.
As early as 2013-June 2014, 1.06 million accounts were cancelled nationwide. As China's customs crackdown intensifies, that number will only grow.
Last year, when a Chinese Australian returned to visit their relatives, they were found to have not cancelled their domestic accounts at the time of entry, belonging to "dual nationality."
So he had to cancel his Chinese residence before he could return to Australia.
However, Chinese who hold permanent foreign residence but do not enter foreign countries are not affected by this rule and are free to enter or leave the country.
The editor is also here to remind those Chinese who want to obtain, are about to acquire or have acquired Australian nationality.
In the acquisition of Australian citizenship must remember to cancel their domestic household registration, do not have luck.
If dual nationality is found, it will bring a lot of trouble to itself.
