如存在超过免签期限停留等属于边检机关管辖的违法情形，中国边检机关将依法依规进行处理。对于其他超出边检机关管辖范围的违法情形，当事人应当到公安机关出入境管理部门或其他相关主管部门接受处理后，凭有关证明材料到边检机关办理出境手续。
A：For a foreign national who has entered China without a visa and needs to exit using a new passport, emergency passport or travel document due to loss or damage of the original identity document, the Chinese border inspection authority in charge will verify in line with the law the foreign national’s identity, entry record or loss report, and supporting documents issued by the relevant foreign embassy or consulate in China. If these documents are confirmed to be valid and the individual concerned has not overstayed, or committed any other illegal acts, he/she may be allowed to exit according to the law.
If the individual has overstayed, or committed other illegal acts under the jurisdiction of the Chinese border inspection authority, the authority will handle the case according to laws and regulations.
For other violations beyond the jurisdiction of the border inspection authorities, the individual must first be processed by the exit-entry administration department of a public security organ or other relevant competent authorities. Thereafter, they may proceed to exit through the border inspection authority by presenting the relevant proof of resolution.
