A. Identification

Household type

4.1. Part A: Identity Information
Recording the identity information in part A is taken from the household list of the survey area which the Central Population and Housing Census Office distributes to the surveyors.
 
Identity information refers to information about the location of the household that the surveyor interviewed. It should be written in numbers including the code of the province, city, village, survey area number, building number, household number, household type, village type, and the license number used in this household. The province code, district code, village code, and a serial number of the survey area must be in line with the cover of the questionnaire.

Household type
Based on the household definition, if the household is interviewed as an individual household, then highlight in black on the box with the number 1 "Individual household". If the household interviewed is a collective household, then highlight in black on the box
 with the number 2 "Collective household".
  
Special cases: For embassy personnel or students abroad, they are counted as collective households. For the identification information, write down only the country code.
