China Joint Ventures

We assist companies to structure the joint venture, prepare the appropriate submissions and negotiate their joint venture with the partner(s) and the relevant approval authorities.

• The key stages are:
  • Letter of Intent (Memorandum of Understanding)
  • Project proposal
  • Feasibility study
  • Contract and Articles of Association
  • Submission of feasibility study and contract for approval
  • Approval certificate and business licence
  • Other registrations

All agreements have to be consistent. The process is not always a straightforward linear one, especially for a larger joint venture. Negotiations with partners and the preparation of documents often take place at the same time as the opinions of the approval authorities are being sought.

We have prepared a number of documents, which give more detailed information on the joint venture process in China. These documents are China specific but would also help in the negotiation of joint ventures in other countries.

If any of these documents are of interest, please contact us with your details and we will send them to you by return email.
