For foreign-funded companies operating in Shenzhen, adjusting the business scope is a critical step to adapt to market demands or expand services. However, navigating regulatory requirements and understanding agency charges can be challenging. As a professional service provider, Shenzhen Yifan Consulting Co., Ltd. offers transparent pricing and efficient solutions to streamline this process for international enterprises.
Understanding the Process of Business Scope Adjustment
Foreign-funded companies in Shenzhen must follow strict procedures when modifying their business scope. First, the proposed changes must align with China’s Foreign Investment Negative List and local regulations. Shareholders or directors need to approve the adjustment through a resolution, followed by submitting updated articles of association to authorities like the Shenzhen Market Supervision Bureau. Additionally, companies must update licenses, certificates, and ensure all documents reflect the new scope accurately.
Yifan Consulting simplifies this process by handling document preparation, government submissions, and compliance checks. For instance, if a foreign-funded enterprise wishes to add technology development to its scope, our team verifies industry restrictions, drafts legal documents, and coordinates with departments to complete approvals within 5–7 working days.
Transparent Agency Charges and Service Value
One common concern for foreign investors is the cost of adjusting business scope. At Yifan Consulting, agency charges are structured to reflect the complexity of each case. Typically, fees range between RMB 3,000 to RMB 5,000, covering government fees, document processing, and advisory services. For example, a manufacturing company expanding into e-commerce might incur costs at the lower end, while ventures entering regulated sectors like healthcare may require more detailed compliance reviews, leading to higher fees.
Our pricing model avoids hidden charges. Clients receive a detailed breakdown upfront, including government fees (approximately RMB 1,000–2,000) and agency service fees (RMB 2,000–3,000). This transparency builds trust, especially for first-time investors unfamiliar with Shenzhen’s administrative landscape.
Why Choose Professional Agency Services?
Foreign-funded companies often underestimate the time and expertise required for scope adjustments. Without local knowledge, errors in documentation or delays in approvals can disrupt operations. Yifan Consulting mitigates these risks through:
1. Regulatory Expertise: Our advisors stay updated on Shenzhen’s foreign investment policies, ensuring applications meet the latest standards.
2. Efficiency: With established relationships across government departments, we expedite approvals. A recent case involving a European logistics firm was completed in 4 working days, avoiding weeks of back-and-forth.
3. Post-Service Support: After scope adjustments, we assist clients in updating tax registrations, financial records, and other filings to maintain compliance.
