Free trade zones · high-tech zones · local negotiation

Where you register in China is as strategic as how — location determines your Negative List, tax treatment, customs treatment, and the incentives you can negotiate.

Site Selection & Incentives

Free trade zones · high-tech zones · local negotiation

Free Trade Zones offer shorter Negative Lists, simplified customs, and streamlined FX treatment; high-tech zones and comprehensive bonded zones carry their own tax and land advantages; and local governments in competitive regions routinely negotiate tax rebates, rent subsidies, and talent incentives to attract qualifying investment.

We benchmark locations against your profile — R&D intensity, export share, headcount mix, and IP posture — then support your negotiation with local authorities so that promised incentives are documented, deliverable, and compliant, rather than informal and unenforceable.
