What if I lose my police registration receipt?
Losing the address registration receipt does not cancel the registration, but you still need proof.
Staying at a hotel: Ask reception for a printed record and confirm the data was entered — not just a verbal yes.
Renting or own home: Register in person at the local police station. It does not happen automatically.
Moving address: A new address means a new district and a fresh registration.
What most people miss: Sanya's public reply lists address registration in the residence permit checklist, so reprint before you file.
