For foreign-funded enterprises operating in Shenzhen, updating key corporate information such as changes to the legal representative is a critical yet complex process. Navigating local regulations, preparing documentation, and coordinating with government authorities require expertise to ensure compliance and avoid delays. As a trusted partner for international businesses, Yifan Consulting (Shenzhen Yifan Corporate Services Co., Ltd.) offers streamlined legal person change agency services tailored to foreign investors’ needs.
Why Legal Person Changes Demand Professional Support
Adjusting the legal representative of a foreign-funded company involves multiple steps with strict regulatory requirements. Authorities such as the Shenzhen Market Supervision Bureau and the Ministry of Commerce require updated articles of association, board resolutions, and notarized identity documents for both the outgoing and incoming legal representatives. Errors in documentation or missed deadlines can lead to administrative penalties or operational disruptions. Yifan Consulting’s team of bilingual advisors specializes in guiding clients through these procedures efficiently, minimizing risks while maintaining full compliance with Chinese corporate laws.
Key Steps in the Legal Person Change Process
1. Document Preparation: Submitting a revised company charter, shareholder resolutions, and notarized identification for the new legal representative (e.g., passport copies for foreign individuals or certified corporate documents for overseas entities).
2. Government Approvals: Filing applications with the Shenzhen Market Supervision Bureau and updating records with tax authorities, customs, and other relevant departments.
3. Post-Change Updates: Modifying business licenses, bank account signatories, and public enterprise profiles to reflect the new legal representative.
Yifan Consulting handles every stage, from initial document review to final registration updates, ensuring a seamless transition.
Transparent Pricing and Timelines
Foreign-funded companies can expect clear cost structures for legal person change services. For instance, agency fees for updating legal representative registrations start from RMB 4,500, covering document preparation, government liaison, and post-change compliance checks. The entire process typically completes within 5–7 business days, depending on the complexity of the case.
Additionally, clients benefit from supplementary services such as Business Secretary Address solutions (RMB 3,000/year) to maintain a compliant registered office in Shenzhen.
