FAQs
Licensing & Permit FAQs
How do I determine which license or permit my business needs?
The answer depends on the registered business scope, actual operating model, online/offline activities and industry regulation. Describe your business scenario first so the appropriate licensing direction can be identified.
What documents are usually required before applying?
Common materials include the business license, legal-representative and personnel information, operating-address documents, internal policies, contracts and business evidence. Requirements vary by license or permit.
Can I discuss licensing before the company is registered?
Yes. It is often helpful to identify the licensing requirements for the intended business first, then plan the entity type, business scope, registered address and subsequent tax and accounting setup around them.
What should I monitor after the license or permit is issued?
Monitor the license validity period, alignment with the business scope, annual inspection or filing requirements, invoice use, accounting treatment and record retention.
What conditions should be checked before applying for a Food Business License?
Typically, the business premises, equipment and facilities, food-safety system, staff health management, proposed food activities and online/offline sales model should be confirmed first.
Is an ICP License the same as a standard website ICP filing?
No. An ICP filing is a basic requirement for putting a website online in China, while an ICP License generally applies to commercial internet information services and must be assessed against the business model and applicable regulation.
