What is an affiliated registered address?
When registering a company in China and obtaining a business license, the government will require you to provide the company’s registered address. This address usually needs to be a real and verifiable physical address, which may be verified by the government. At the same time, this address is also required for government communication, legal document transmission, and tax registration. In addition, when opening a company bank account, the bank also needs to visit the address in person to verify information and understand the customer (KYC) process. Therefore, virtual addresses such as postal boxes are usually not accepted.
In order to encourage entrepreneurship and reduce the cost of entrepreneurship, the government now supports local governments to issue registration conditions for newly registered enterprises, and promote registered residence reforms such as “multiple certificates in one place” and “cluster registration”. The company owner can choose to settle in the centralized office area, enterprise incubation platform, maker space, entrepreneurial caf é, innovation workshop, and innovation technology park registered with the local industrial and commercial bureau, and use their address to register the company.
Choosing an affiliated registered address can bring you the following advantages:
- Legitimate registration: The affiliated registered address allows the company to meet the requirements of a legitimate registered address, so you don’t have to worry about compliance issues
- Cost effectiveness: For enterprises that do not require physical office space, using an attached address can significantly reduce costs
- Convenient email and communication: Affiliated registered addresses typically provide email reception and forwarding services to ensure that businesses do not miss important public letters and documents
- Improving corporate reputation: Setting up affiliated registered addresses in well-known commercial centers or industrial parks may enhance the company’s professional image
- Flexibility: For companies that may need to frequently change their office location or expand their business, a subsidiary registered address is more flexible than changing a physical address
- Administrative support services: Some address providers also provide additional administrative and secretarial services, such as phone answering, conference room reservations, etc

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need a registered address service?
In China, according to the Company Law, every company must provide a valid registered address when registering. Registered address services can help companies without physical offices meet legal requirements, ensure compliance with local laws, and avoid penalties for not having a valid registered address.
Does the registered address need to be a commercial office address?
not always. According to Chinese regulations, the registered address of a company can be a virtual address, as long as it is a valid and legal address that can receive official government and legal documents. Hongda will always provide a compliant address to ensure that your company complies with legal requirements.
Can I change my registered address?
yes. If your company needs to change its registered address, you can submit an application to the local business registration agency and update the relevant information. After changing the address, you also need to notify the tax authorities and other relevant departments.
