i currently am living in china on a student visa that is valid until the end of august.

Question

I currently am living in China on a student visa that is valid until the end of August.  I will be going back to the Philippines in June in order to renew my passport and change my surname since I got married last year.  My concern is that once I receive my new passport with a new surname that China will not honor my valid visa in my old passport.  Do you know if I will have problems with immigration?  If so, what can I do?  Will I need to get a new visa?Thanks for your help...

I guess that you will face some problems with immigration because you hold a new passport with a new surname, you'd better apply for a new China visa with your new passport.
