Household registration of military families

Legal analysis: Officers and noncommissioned officers whose laws are clear and meet the prescribed conditions, their spouses, minor children and adult children who cannot live independently can settle down with the army. Provisions have been made for the children of dual military personnel to settle in the army. If the law makes it clear that both husband and wife are soldiers, children can choose one of their parents to settle down with the army. The law stipulates the household registration migration of the families of active servicemen after the change of the military location. If it is clear that the location of active servicemen has changed, the dependents who are already in the army can move and settle down, or they can choose to move their household registration to the original domicile of the servicemen and their spouses or the domicile of their parents.

Legal basis: Article 42 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on the Protection of Military Identity and Rights and Interests. Officers and non-commissioned officers who meet the prescribed conditions, their spouses, minor children and adult children who cannot live independently can settle down with the army. Military parents who meet the prescribed conditions can settle down with their children in accordance with the regulations. Both husband and wife are soldiers, and children can choose one of their parents to settle down with the army.

If the location of active servicemen changes, the dependents of the servicemen can move to settle down, or they can choose to move their household registration to the original domicile of the servicemen and their spouses or the domicile of their parents.

The relevant departments of the local people's government and the relevant units of the army shall go through the relevant procedures for the military families to settle down with the army in a timely and efficient manner.
