Doing Business in China
China does not publish its rules in one place. This book does.
More than 1,000 real questions - the ones entrepreneurs, traders and e-commerce sellers ask every day - answered the way practitioners answer clients: verdict first, in plain language, with the numbers, dates and document names that matter. Current to August 2026 and dated wherever a rule is new or fast-moving.
Five volumes in one book, following the life of a business in China:
- Company Formation & Market Entry - WFOEs, Hong Kong companies, registered capital, chops, licences, banking setup
- Visas, Work Permits & Residence - every route into the mainland and Hong Kong, including the no-degree Yiwu channel
- Tax, Accounting & Banking - CIT, VAT and fapiao, payroll, transfer pricing, and moving money compliantly
- Import, Export, Sourcing & E-Commerce - verifying suppliers, quality control, shipping, tariffs, selling worldwide and into China
- HR, IP, Compliance & Exit - hiring and terminating lawfully, trademarks, data rules, disputes, selling or closing the business
Plus: The 100 Rules - one-line advice that keeps you out of scams - and a complete directory of official government sources.
Written by Jasur Mavlyanov, founder of JR & Firm (Hong Kong - Shanghai - Yiwu - US), advisor to more than 500 companies entering Greater China. Read it cover to cover, or keep it on the desk and open it at the question in front of you.
