After the war, the Nationalist government appointed the Executive Office to take over all matters in Taiwan, one of which was to promote the household registration system, in addition to the association with financial resources, the other attempt was to make people to identify the country. In terms of household, the Executive Office announced “Household Registration Law” in April 1946, so that the people of Taiwan became a household administrative people of the Republic of China, which gradually expanded to related household affairs, such as household registration, household address change registration, new ID card, reformed street names, organized house numbers and so on.
In the process of carrying out household registration system, encountered many different problems made household registration system did not proceed as expected: firstly, in August 1945, the war just ended, the nationalist government was still in the chaotic stage, although the Executive Office responsible for the affairs, insufficient household units were unable to coordinate the request time by the Executive Office; secondly, lack of personnel and related training, could not immediately put into the household registration administration and go into population surveys; finally, the potency of the law transmission institutions or the media were unable to display, people cannot receive related news, so that cannot cooperate with the national policies, and thus the establishment of the postwar household registration system was later than originally expected.
The paper not only discusses the establishment of the postwar household registration system, but discusses the related problems the Executive Office encountered in the process, such as the nationality identification of the people of Taiwan after the war, name retrieve, or name change of foreigners because of marriage and foreigner naturalization.
