What is So Special About The Shenzhen Qianhai Special Economic Zone?

by Bobby Lee | 03 April 2017

 

What happens when you mix billions of dollars, innovation, business savvy, forward-thinking entrepreneurs and a very strategic geographic location together? You end up with Qianhai; if you’re not familiar with the region yet here’s what you need to know.

If you're familiar with Shenzhen or Hong Kong it's likely that you would have heard about the Shenzhen-Hong Kong cooperation zone, more commonly known as the QianHai Special Economic Zone.

Qianhai is situated to the far West of Shenzhen and isn’t more than roughly an hour away from all other major PRD manufacturing and commerce hubs: Foshan, Guangzhou, Dongguan, and Zhuhai as well.

Qianhai focuses on four main industries:

  • Finance,
  • Modern Logistics,
  • Information Services,
  • Technology and Professional Services

 

QianHai kicked off in 2010 to offer a stepping stone for a range of businesses seen as beneficial to China’s economy in the future, and Mainland China and Hong Kong have been strengthening ties in the process.

These fact slides of Qianhai will get you up to speed:

Setting up a Shenzhen Qianhai WFOE requires an investment of 5 Million RMB paid into the capital account, however, this can be spread out over a 5 to 10 year period. You can forego this initial investment if you use an existing Hong Kong registered company to set up your WFOE there.
