In recent years, Guangzhou's policies for talent introduction have been continuously changing, resulting in the adjustment of the requirements for household registration. In 2023, new measures will be introduced to further ease the policies. Firstly, the age requirement for certain talents will be relaxed by five years, including those with a bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree and those with intermediate or advanced professional qualification. Secondly, the threshold for registering will be lowered. High school graduates who graduated from "Double First-Class" universities only need to have insurance coverage instead of six consecutive months of insurance coverage to register in Guangzhou. Thirdly, the registration process for fresh graduates will be simplified. They can apply directly to the public security department without the need for complicated intermediate steps.

Guangzhou implements a point-based household registration system, which only requires applicants to achieve a high point total. Points are calculated based on several factors, including stable employment or entrepreneurial experience in the city, an age limit of no more than 45, holding a valid Guangdong Residence Permit, having made social insurance payments for more than four years, achieving at least 100 points according to the Guangzhou Points-Based Household Registration System And Points Table, and having no criminal record in the past five years.

For applicants with a degree from a recognized university, there is an additional academic requirement for household registration. Previously, the application required six months of consecutive social insurance coverage, but since July 2022, only one month of coverage is necessary. Those applying under this category must be under the age of 40, possess a bachelor's degree and a student ID, and have no criminal record.

For those who have not achieved academic success or stable employment but have a technical skill, they can apply under the "Technical Skill Household Registration" category. Applicants must hold a technical skill certificate and must have worked and paid social insurance for no less than six months. The certificate must reflect that the applicant is currently working in a job indicated in the list of professional occupations that Guangzhou plans to introduce as priority industries.

In conclusion, those interested in household registration in Guangzhou have various entry pathways. Applicants need to choose the path most suited to their qualification and work experience. To achieve a successful household registration, one must ensure compliance with the latest policies in terms of age, insurance coverage history, and necessary certificates. It is imperative to stay informed about the most up-to-date changes in policy to secure a higher chance of success.
