Does the place of origin in the household registration book have an impact on schooling, college entrance examination and employment?

What's important is that if you have a Beijing hukou, you can take the exam in Beijing, and it's easier to get into a local school in Beijing. Your native place can only prove where your roots are, and it will not affect your college entrance examination and work, but your hukou will.

Native place refers to the permanent residence or birthplace of grandfather and above paternal ancestors. Also known as ancestral home or native place, the native place generally comes from the father's side, and in some special cases it comes from the mother's side, and the native place is the original native place.

According to the document of the Ministry of Public Security [1995]9 1, a citizen's native place should be his grandfather's place of residence (domicile) when he was born; If grandfather died, fill in the location of the household registration at the time of grandfather's death; If the grandfather has not left the permanent residence, fill in that the grandfather should leave the permanent residence; After a citizen registers his native place, if his grandfather moves his household registration, his native place will remain unchanged.

The domicile is not necessarily the person's ancestral home or native place, especially in economically developed areas, some new places that started construction after the founding of New China and places that have developed rapidly since modern times. A large number of people's native place is not their domicile place. Generally, these people moved from other places to new places after China's reform and opening up or in the era of planned economy, according to the distribution of countries at that time or in modern times.
