Why do you need to verify the registration information of a company in China?

The local office of the State Administration of Industry and Commerce (AIC) is the Chinese equivalent of the UK’s Companies House. All companies in China are legally required to register with the municipal level AIC bureau to obtain their business licence. Conducting a Company Registration Report is the very first level of due diligence you should carry out when researching the background of a Chinese company. The registration information will help you determine whether the company is genuine and legitimately registered. You will then be in a position to make a more informed decision about whether the Chinese company might be an appropriate business partner and assess what further due diligence may be appropriate.

Scope of work:

You will get the Company Registration Report in English, which is based on the Chinese company’s AIC registration and provides you with the following information:

• ● Company name
• ● Registered address
• ● Registration number
• ● Legal representative
• ● Registration capital
• ● Date of registration
• ● Type of enterprise
• ● Business scope
• ● Shareholder
• ● Renewal status
