Can I register a Hainan company without being in China?
You can start a Hainan company registration without being in China.
Signed scans are enough: Sign the documents, send scans, and we can begin — no personal appearance for registration.
Decide four things first: Company name, business scope, shareholding and registered address.
Licence by courier: Once issued, the licence and seals can be delivered to you.
What most people miss: Registration can be remote. A real-name mobile number, a corporate bank account and online banking still need you in person.
