Let us incorporate your Chinese company for you for free!

What is included?

  • One year membership at TroubleMaker with all the above mentioned features and benefits
  • Incorporating your company
  • Business license
  • Company chops
  • Opening your company bank account
  • Registering your company at the tax office

What is not included?

Depending on what you want to do with your company and how your company will operate, you may need extra licenses, registrations, and permits. For example, import/export licence, customs registration, work permits and others. We can help you with these as well at a competitive fee.

I already have a Chinese company and don't need another one. Can I get a discount on the membership fee instead?

Instead of a discount, we prefer to give you an upgrade to a higher tier. This helps TroubleMaker stay sustainable which is good for both of us.
