Ask your questionHongda is an independent business-services provider founded in 2007. It coordinates company registration, banking, tax, payroll, work permits and related services for foreign investors in China, Hong Kong, Singapore and other markets.
No. Registration decisions, official documents, licences and bank approvals remain with the competent authorities or financial institutions. Hongda prepares the documents, coordinates the agreed steps and tells you where an outside decision can change the sequence.
Yes, foreign investors can own 100% of many companies in China. The proposed sector and activities must still comply with the applicable foreign-investment Negative List and any industry-specific ownership, licensing or approval requirements.
Timing varies by city, shareholder structure, document readiness, authentication requirements, business scope and authority review. Tax setup, bank KYC and additional licences follow their own schedules, so Hongda confirms the project stages after reviewing the case rather than promising one universal timeline.
There is no universal amount. The figure should reflect the company’s business scope, sector requirements and realistic funding needs for rent, salaries, purchasing, inventory and early operations. New limited liability companies are generally subject to a five-year subscribed-capital contribution period unless specific rules provide otherwise.
Many planning, document-preparation and registration steps can often be coordinated from overseas. However, local procedures, original-document checks or bank KYC may require the legal representative, an authorised person or other participants to attend, depending on the city, bank and case.
