For foreign enterprises there are three main types of companies in China. Each type has its advantages as well as crucial disadvantages. Before investing in China, each company has to be sure what it wants to reach and how long it wants to stay in the Chinese market.
Set up business in Shenzhen is also called Shenzhen company setup, Shenzhen corporate formation,Shenzhen company registration, Shenzhen business setup, Shenzhen company incorporation, Shenzhen company formation and Shenzhen business registration.
Representative office (RO)
The formation of a representative office is for many companies the first step to China. In most of the cases these companies already have a customer base in China and want to support them or get accustomed to the new environment. The representatives are founded out of marketing and promotion reasons in most of the times. A sponsor is necessary for the formation of a representative office in China. This has to be a Chinese company. Mostly the company is founded in cooperation with existing customers or business partners. The problem concerning a representative office is that they are not allowed of signing business deals or contracts. They are not allowed to be involved in any business operations as well as selling products in China. For such activities they need a Chinese company or trade office. The initiation and searching of new business contacts, consultation and perhaps the creation of market studies are their main tasks. Another problem is the hiring of Chinese staff. The employees just can be hired through assigned agencies. These agencies recommend the company the employees. The agencies will take care about the payroll accounting and the fringe costs. The formation of a representative office goes easy and fast.
Joint Venture (JV)
In earlier year the Joint Venture was the most common business type for foreign enterprises in China. In some sectors it was and still is necessary for the formation of such a company as a car producer or the aircraft industry. A crucial point for the formation of the JV is to gain market shares, customers and knowledge about the Chinese market through the JV-partner.
Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise(WFOE)
Nowadays it is the most common type for founding an enterprise as foreign investor. Compared to a JV the advantage is that the foreign company is able to follow their own aims more clearly and does not have to take care about their Chinese JV partner. The shares are in the hands of foreign investors and the company is founded as a subsidiary in most the times.
