Business Address Services From Us

Office Space (Serviced, Traditional, or Co‑Working)

We match your headcount, budget, and brand image with the most suitable office format.

Serviced Offices – Fully furnished, all‑inclusive (utilities, cleaning, IT support). Ideal for small teams, start‑ups, or temporary project offices. Short‑term leases available.
Traditional Leases – Raw or semi‑fitted spaces with longer lease terms (typically 2‑5 years). Suitable for FIEs requiring custom fit‑out and dedicated control.
Co‑Working Spaces – Flexible hot‑desking or dedicated desks in shared environments. Lower commitment, networking opportunities, but limited customisation.

Factory & Warehouse

For manufacturing or logistics FIEs, the address must satisfy additional criteria: industrial zoning, environmental permits, and cargo access.

Zoning Confirmation – Ensure the site is designated for industrial or warehousing use under local land classification.

Loading & Unloading Assessment – Evaluate truck access, turning radius, dock height, and on‑site circulation for heavy vehicles.

Environmental & Safety Compliance – Check proximity to residential areas, water sources, and compliance with environmental impact assessment (EIA) requirements for your specific production activities.
Utility Capacity – Confirm adequate electricity, water, gas, and waste treatment capacity for your projected operations

Lease Negotiation & Contract Review

Lease agreements for commercial or industrial premises in China often contain terms that significantly affect your rights and costs. We provide expert support.

Market Rent Benchmarking – Provide recent comparable rents in the target area to strengthen your negotiation position.

Key Lease Terms – Advise on rental payment schedules, security deposits (typically 2‑3 months), rent escalation clauses, repair responsibilities, early termination rights, and subletting permissions.

Chinese‑English Drafting – Review the Chinese lease contract and provide a bilingual side‑letter highlighting critical obligations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the registered business address important in China?

Your registered address is a legal requirement for company registration and must satisfy local government and industry rules. It affects which authority oversees you, your eligibility for certain licenses, and your tax jurisdiction, so choosing correctly avoids registration rejections and future relocation costs.

Can I use a virtual office address to register a company in China?

In many cities a compliant virtual or shared address can be used for registration, particularly for consulting and trading businesses, provided it meets local requirements. Some industries and cities require a physical, dedicated space. We advise on what is acceptable for your business type and location.

What types of premises can you help foreign companies secure?

We help identify and secure registered office addresses, virtual offices, physical office space, retail locations, and factory or industrial-park premises, matching the property to your business activities, budget, and compliance needs.

Does the business address affect taxes and incentives?

Yes. Different districts and industrial parks offer different tax treatments, subsidies, and incentives. Selecting the right location can improve your tax position and access to support, which we factor into our address recommendations.

What should foreign investors check before signing a lease in China?

Confirm the landlord’s ownership and right to lease, that the property’s registered use permits your business, that the address can be used for company registration, and that lease terms cover invoicing (fapiao) and renewal. We conduct due diligence before you commit.

Can you help if we need to change our registered address later?

Yes. We manage registered-address changes, including updating the business license and related registrations with the authorities, so relocations are handled compliantly with minimal disruption.
