FAQ

Common questions before setting up a business in China.

These answers are practical starting points. The correct route depends on business activity, ownership, city, tax needs, bank review and people plans.

Can a foreigner fully own a China company?

In many sectors yes, but the activity and restrictions must be checked first.

Is a business license enough to operate?

No. Bank, tax, fapiao, accounting and sometimes permits are needed after registration.

Can the founder work in China after registering a company?

Not automatically. A work permit and residence route should be planned.

Do I need a China trademark?

If you are entering the market, sourcing, selling or using a brand name, this should be reviewed early.

Can you quote a fixed price immediately?

A reliable proposal needs scope, shareholder jurisdiction, activity, city and post-license needs.
