中國式辦證 中國人一生最多需辦證件超400個!
How many legal papers might the average Chinese need from cradle to grave? More than 400, says an official study, about a quarter of which are used frequently.
普通中國人一生中需要多少個具有法律效力的證件、證明？一項官方調查顯示，答案是400多個，其中常用證件約佔1/4。According to China's E-Government Yearbook (2015), the average Chinese citizen will be issued 103 necessary papers - from birth to death certificates.
根據《中國電子政務年鑑(2015)》，從出生證明到死亡證明，普通中國公民會被簽發103個必需的證件、證明。The focus point of China's document system is the hukou, or household residence permit.
中國的資料系統的焦點就是戶口，或稱爲家庭居住證。
The report said citizens will be requested to produce their hukous an average 37 times during their lifetimes to dozens of bureaus. They will receive around 100 officially sealed documents, reported last Tuesday.
調查報告稱，辦理這103個常用證件、證明，中國公民一生平均需要向幾十個部門提交戶口簿37次。根據《第一財經網》上週二的報道，公民們需要蓋大約100多個章。Take the case of a man surnamed Yu who, while attempting to purchase a house in Guangzhou, was shuffled back and forth between agencies due to a lost document.
以一位余姓男子爲例，他打算在廣州購買房子，但卻因爲丟失文件而在衆多機構之間來回奔波。Yu said he was first required by authorities to prove he was not married in order to buy his home. Yu was baffled. "What is the point of the certificate?" asked Yu.
餘先生表示，一開始他被相關部門要求提供他沒有結婚的證明，以此來購買他房子。他對此很困惑併發問道：“這個證明的意義在哪裏？”An elderly couple from Northwest China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region ran into a similar situation in Guangzhou when they were co-signing on a home loan for their daughter. Like Yu, the couple was also asked to provide a marriage certificate, which they had lost years earlier.
而來自中國新疆維吾爾族自治區的一對老夫妻在廣州也遇到了類似的問題。當時他們正在爲女兒購房而簽署一份房屋貸款。和餘先生一樣，這對夫婦也被要求提供結婚證明，但是該證明已遺失多年。Instead of traveling the 4,000 kilometers back to Xinjiang to have one reissued, the couple of 40 years took advantage of a loophole. Authorities advised them to simply get married again - for a new certificate.
之後，這對結婚40年的老夫妻並沒有跋涉4000公里返回新疆重新再辦證件，而是利用了一個漏洞。有關部門建議他們二人再簡單的結一次婚、再辦一次結婚證。
