03011: Domicile

Field Information

Number: 012
Name: Domicile
Abbreviation: DOMICILE
Length: 4
Status: Compulsory.
Description: The Domicile field is taken here to be the country code of the student's permanent or home address prior to entry to the programme of study. It is not necessarily the correspondence address of the student.

For students entering through UCAS this information will be available from UCAS via the *J transaction.

This is a compulsory field as it plays a major role for statistics. The country code should be entered as in Appendix DOMICILE.
Notes: The coding frame is the same one that is used for Nationality for ease of coding. For UK students, the institution should return the relevant country code for England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Channel Islands or Isle of Man. Code 2826 'United Kingdom' must NOT be used for Domicile.

Domicile and nationality coding for students from China:-

The following guidance on the coding of field 12 DOMICILE and field 13 NATION for students from specific parts of China is based on advice recently received from the Foreign & Commonwealth Office. Code 1631, People's Republic of China (PRC) should be used where relevant in cases not covered by the guidance.

Code 1669 Hong Kong appears separately for historical and immigration reasons as this Special Administrative Region issues different passports from those of the PRC. This code is not regarded as having any implications for issues of nationality, but should continue to be used in both the domicile and nationality fields.

Code 1694 Macao appears separately for historical and immigration reasons as this Special Administrative Region issues different passports from those of the PRC. This code is not regarded as having any implications for issues of nationality, but should continue to be used in both the domicile and nationality fields.

Code 1652 Taiwan - The United Kingdom acknowledges the position of the Chinese Government that Taiwan is a province of China and recognises the Chinese Government as the sole legal government of China. The United Kingdom does not recognise Taiwan as a state and does not have diplomatic relations with Taiwan. However, because the United Kingdom accepts passports issued by the Taiwanese Authorities for immigration purposes, it is necessary to use a separate country code 1652, Taiwan, in both the domicile and nationality fields. This has no bearing on the United Kingdom's position on Taiwan's status.

Tibet - The mention of Tibet alongside code 1631, People's Republic of China, has been removed. It had been there solely to ensure that anyone giving 'Tibet' as a country of domicile or a nationality was coded as 'People's Republic of China', and this practice should continue. There was no implication that 'Tibet' represented a separate domicile or nationality, and there is not and never has been a separate code for it.

Institutions are advised to quote the relevant guidance in response to any query.
Reason Required: To obtain the numbers of students domiciled in particular EC countries and elsewhere abroad, and hence calculate participation rates.

To forecast the demand for student allowances and grants.

To record cross border flows.
