The ordinary passport currently used by Chinese citizens is the 92 version passport (developed in 1992). As the situation changes, the defects and deficiencies in the content design, production process, and anti-counterfeiting technology of the 92 version of the passport have become increasingly obvious, and it can no longer meet the needs of foreign exchanges and passport management work. To this end, the Ministry of Public Security developed a new version of the passport (i.e. the 97 version passport) in 1997. It completed the finalization of the passport in 1999 and decided to promote it step by step in all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across the country this year. Jiangsu and Shanghai started pilot operations on June 1 this year, and nine provinces and cities including Beijing, Henan, Shandong, Tianjin, Hubei, Anhui, Hebei, Fujian, and Jiangxi, as the first batch of provinces, started to use it one after another in July this year. Our province and 11 other provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities including Liaoning, Jilin, Zhejiang, Guangxi, Hainan, Chongqing, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan and Shaanxi were the second batch of provinces to be launched in October this year. After the activation of passport version 97, the currently used ordinary passport version 92 will no longer be issued. The originally issued version 92 passport can still be used within the validity period, but will not be extended.
