re-enter china with last name change in new passport

Question

I'm planning to going back to my country to renew my passport and also to add my husband last name in my new passport (we just got married). I need a little bit information if I will be able to re-enter China if I add my husband last name in my new passport because I do not have my husband last name in my residence permit (I have residence permit in China). Thanks.

I think it is a potential problem, once the immigration officer notices the difference between the new passport and the residence permit, you will face some trouble. You can take the name change certificate to prove it is the same person.
