The sixth national census program stipulates: "The sixth national census will be inquired by census takers and filled in on the spot."
Census registration refers to the fact that the census taker truthfully registers the situation of each census object in the census community on the census form through household inquiry on the basis of in-depth household investigation. It is the experience of previous censuses to inquire at home and fill in the report on the spot. There are many advantages to doing so. First, it is convenient for the masses to conduct census registration. Household registration generally takes the form of appointment registration, which can reduce the waiting time of the masses. Second, it is convenient for the masses to declare, which can protect the privacy of the applicant and alleviate the concerns of the applicant. Third, it can improve the accuracy and reliability of census registration. Direct household inquiry and investigation can judge whether the applicant's declaration is different from the actual situation, so as to find out whether there is any concealment or omission of the population.
The sixth national census program stipulates: "The census adopts the principle of registration according to the current residence. Everyone must register at their current place of residence. If the census object does not live in the place where the household registration is located, the corresponding information shall be registered at the place where the household registration is located.
