Is the green card in the United States equivalent to the ID card of China people? What other uses are there?

The American green card is a permanent resident card in the United States. Cardholders can live, work and live in the United States, and enjoy various rights granted by the government except the right to vote and stand for election. However, the green card is not an American "hukou", and the cardholder still has the original nationality and enters and exits with the original national passport. After five years, you can apply for American citizenship, change your American passport and enjoy the right to vote. At this time, I have an "American account".

The term "green card" originated in the United States, because the earliest permanent residence permit in the United States was a green card. With the change of design, the version of 19 was updated. Now it is a white plastic card with a yellow-green pattern, but the name "green card" has been retained. Other countries follow the United States and call their permanent residence permits green cards.
