Can I apply for a new ID card in Taiyuan, Shanxi on Saturday and Sunday?

Residents of Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province cannot apply for replacement of their ID cards on Saturday and Sunday. The basis is as follows:

"Provisions of the State Council on Working Hours of Employees" Article 7 State organs and institutions shall implement unified working hours, with Saturdays and Sundays as weekly rest days. Enterprises and institutions that cannot implement the unified working hours stipulated in the preceding paragraph may flexibly arrange weekly rest days according to actual conditions.

The police station is the grass-roots organization of the public security department in China, which is subordinate to the state organs and manages household registration and grass-roots public security. The police station implements the national unified working hours (that is, the working hours of local civil servants and institutions), that is, they work from Monday to Friday every week and rest on Saturday and Sunday except for the personnel on duty (the police station has personnel on duty 24 hours a day). Residents must apply for household registration during working hours from Monday to Friday.

Therefore, residents of Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province cannot apply for replacement of their ID cards on Saturday and Sunday.
