If you get a green card, your account will be cancelled. what do you think?

Joining a foreign nationality will definitely cancel China nationality, but getting a green card will cancel your account, which is not a common national policy.

The news of "compulsory account cancellation" began with the announcement issued by Shanghai, a WeChat platform under the Information Office of Shanghai Municipal People's Government, on March 14, saying that Shanghai would implement the new account management policy on May 1 4.

This policy is called "Regulations on the Administration of Permanent Residence in Shanghai", in which Article 46 mentions:

If you go abroad to settle down or join a foreign nationality, you should cancel your account with the local police station. If the account has not been cancelled, the public security police station shall promptly notify himself, his close relatives, the head of the household or the coordinator of the collective account, and if he refuses to cancel the account or fails to handle it within one month after being notified, he may cancel the account.

There is no such provision in the household registration management policies of other cities in China. Therefore, this is only the regulation of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau, which only applies to Chinese registered in Shanghai and does not affect overseas Chinese in other regions.

Of course, it has also been suggested that this policy reform in Shanghai is likely to be an experiment for the next nationwide promotion, and perhaps the policy will be implemented nationwide in the future.

But in the future, who knows? Even if it is to be promoted, it will be promoted in the first-tier cities with a large population, so don't worry too much.
