Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between WFOE and Joint Venture?

A WFOE (Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise) allows 100% foreign ownership and complete operational control, while a Joint Venture requires a Chinese partner with shared ownership and decision-making. WFOEs offer more autonomy but may face market access limitations in certain restricted sectors.

How much does China company registration cost?

Total costs typically range from $3,000-8,000 including government fees, legal services, registered address, and initial compliance setup. Costs vary based on registered capital, business scope, and location. We provide transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

Can I register remotely without visiting China?

Yes, remote registration is possible through our comprehensive service. We handle all local procedures using power of attorney. However, for banking and certain administrative tasks, a brief visit may be required within the first few months of operation.

What business activities can a WFOE engage in?

WFOEs can engage in most commercial activities including trading, manufacturing, consulting, and technology services. Restrictions exist for industries like telecommunications, media, and certain financial services. We help determine permitted activities based on your specific business model.

How does the 2025 Company Law affect foreign investors?

The revised Company Law introduces enhanced corporate governance requirements, updated capitalization rules, and stronger compliance frameworks. Foreign-invested enterprises must restructure to comply with new standards. We ensure full compliance with all updated regulations during registration.

What ongoing compliance requirements exist?

Requirements include monthly tax filings, quarterly social security contributions, annual business license renewals, and annual reports to AMR and MOFCOM. Additional requirements may apply based on industry and business activities. We offer ongoing compliance services to maintain good standing.
