FAQ
Common questions
Do I need a payment licence to collect in China?
Many models require payment or related licences; structure, entity, and partner banks matter. Do not assume a WFOE alone is enough.
Do these lawyers work with foreign clients?
Many listed counsel assist foreign businesses and individuals. Check languages on each profile and request an English consultation when available.
What does a free initial consultation cover?
Usually a short case assessment, whether China is the right jurisdiction, and practical next steps. It is not full representation; terms vary by lawyer.
