Does legally stable residence mean the house you bought?

A legally stable residence does not mean that you bought a house. Domicile refers to the address of a natural person or legal person whose legal relationship is concentrated in one place, and it is the main base or central place for citizens' life and civil activities.

Article 15 of the General Principles of the Civil Law stipulates that a citizen takes his domicile as his domicile, and if his habitual residence is inconsistent with his domicile, his habitual residence shall be regarded as his domicile. "habitual residence" should be understood as a place where you have lived continuously for more than 1 year and have a long-term residence purpose. If a citizen has not moved to another place and has no habitual residence after moving out of the domicile, the domicile shall still be the original domicile.

Extended data:

Legally stable residence mainly includes the following categories:

1. Citizens actually live in legally owned houses in urban areas;

2, in the local housing construction (housing management) departments for housing lease registration.

3. Dormitories provided by employers or schools;

4. Self-purchased houses that meet the living conditions and actually live, legally self-built houses, affordable housing and public housing units authorized by the government and units for their own use.

When renting a house, the rental house should meet two conditions at the same time:

1. Lease registration shall be handled in the housing construction (housing management) department.

2, the house should be independent, with a separate house number (except shared houses and non-residential houses).
