Can my brother apply for a lifelong residence certificate?

Of course.

There are generally two kinds of residence documents. One is the certificate issued by the local police station, including the temporary residence permit. The other is the certificate issued by the residential property company. The above certificates generally include where I live, how to apply for a residence permit and how to write the residence certificate, including whether the household registration is local or not, and the rental contract.

To apply for a residence permit, you need to bring your original ID card, a copy of your ID card, two one-inch bareheaded color photos and a house lease contract to the local police station to apply for a residence permit. The police input the audit information into the microcomputer, with complete information and documents, and issue residence permits.
