How to fill in the issuing city in the passport information in the DS- 160 form? My passport information only says Hebei, not the city.

Just fill in "Hebei" directly in the column of issuing city.

China has a strict passport issuance and management system. For example, to apply for a passport, you need to go to the overseas personnel of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the passport is issued by the province, municipality directly under the Central Government or autonomous region to which the city belongs. So even if all the procedures are handled locally, such as applying in Baoding and getting a passport, the "passport issuing place" is still "Hebei". Foreign forms will not be completely arranged according to the format of our country, only the "issuing city" needs to be filled in, that is, the "passport issuing place" needs to be filled in. So "Hebei" is correct.

It is of practical significance to know the place where passports are issued. Through it, you can know the domicile of the passport holder and all the relevant information of the person. Help relevant departments at home and abroad to inquire and give help when necessary. At the same time, it can also provide a basis for the authorities to count the flow of people going abroad in different regions.
