General Rules on Domicile

 It is a settled principle that nobody shall be without a domicile, and in order to make the effective the law assigns what is called a domicile of origin to every person at his birth, namely, to a legitimate child the domicile of the father, to an illegitimate child the domicile of the mother, and to a foundling the place where he is found.

Second, a person cannot have two domiciles.

Third, the fact that domicile signifies connection with a single system of territorial law does not necessarily connote a system that prescribes identical rules for all classes of persons.

Fourth, there is a presumption in favor of the continuance of an existing domicile.

Fifth， subject to certain statutory exception, the domicile of a person is to be determined according to the English and not the foreign concept of domicile.
