Our Solution  

  • We were sucessfully able to set up a Hong Kong company for Luce5 and then establish a trading WFOE in Shenzhen, enabling the business to operate across the border and process intercompany transactions with ease.
  • Facing tax issues as most companies usually do being new to China, we are able to assist Luce5 with issuing Fapiao's to their clients, and our highly knowledgeable taxation department were also able to help Luce5 with local tax compliance and regulatory requirements.
