Can I stay in a hotel without an ID card?

You can't. According to Article 6 of the Measures for the Administration of Public Security in Hotel Industry, hotels must register for receiving passengers' accommodation. At the time of registration, the passenger's identity documents shall be checked and truthfully registered according to the prescribed items. To receive accommodation from overseas tourists, an accommodation registration form shall also be submitted to the local public security organ within 24 hours.

Article 7 Hotels shall set up safe deposit boxes, lockers, storerooms and safes for passengers' belongings, and designate special persons to take care of them. A system of registration, collection and handover shall be established for the property deposited by passengers.

According to the current regulations, if you don't have an ID card to stay in a hotel, you need to issue relevant certificates to the police station in your jurisdiction. For this reason, many citizens complain that "it is a bit troublesome to live in a hotel without an ID card." "Based on the portrait comparison in the Internet plus, the complexity is simplified, so that the masses can run less errands.

At present, the official name of the system is "Sichuan Province undocumented personnel identity information audit system".

"The approval process is fully automated without manual intervention, eliminating the process of 24-hour police duty." Zheng Quanning said that undocumented people collected registration identity information through the hotel front desk and uploaded photos to the system. The system automatically recognizes the portrait and compares it with the public security data information, and usually completes the audit within 20 seconds, which greatly shortens the audit time and improves the work efficiency.

At present, the system has been installed and used in 16 police station, 500 hotels and 238 unlicensed places. After various forms of training and counseling, the front desk staff are familiar with the audit and registration process, and the utilization rate is over 95%.
