China Registered Office Address & Workspace Solutions
Every China company needs a registered address. We provide a qualifying, compliant one that satisfies Hainan FTP substance requirements — and handle the compliance side, so you don't navigate it alone.
Our registered address & workspace, at a glance
Workspace solutions, led by a compliant address
From the registered address every company needs to a full office if you want one.
The core service
A real, verifiable registered address that satisfies Hainan FTP substance requirements — not a mailbox, and not an office you have to lease and occupy.
If you want your own space
Private offices, dedicated desks and premium meeting rooms for teams who want a physical base in Hainan.
Kept handled
Mail handling and reception so correspondence and callers are managed professionally on your behalf.
What a qualifying address is — and isn't
The address type is where many setups go wrong. Here's the line we hold.
| Type | Status for a Hainan company |
|---|---|
| Qualifying compliant address (what we provide) | A real, verifiable address that satisfies FTP substance requirements |
| Virtual mailbox | A bare mailbox on paper — can fall short for the 15% rate, banking and checks |
| A leased office you occupy | Not required for our service — you don't have to rent and sit in an office |
| Link to the 15% rate | A qualifying address is necessary but not sufficient on its own — see below |
From address to a compliant setup
A clear sequence — we handle the compliance side at each step.
We assess your eligibility
We look at your industry, planned operations and the income test to see whether the 15% rate is realistically within reach — before you commit.
We provide a qualifying address
You receive a real, compliant registered address that satisfies Hainan FTP substance requirements — not a mailbox, not an office you have to occupy.
We register your company to it
The address is used to register your WFOE, correctly, as part of your setup.
We handle the compliance side
We keep the substance and address compliance in order so your standing holds up to checks.
You access the 15% rate if you qualify
With a qualifying address and the other conditions met, eligible companies access the 15% corporate tax rate — we confirm and support the claim.
An address alone does not get you the 15% rate
To be clear, because it's widely misunderstood: a registered address is necessary but not sufficient for Hainan's 15% corporate tax rate. The rate also depends on being in an encouraged industry, running genuine, substantive operations in Hainan, and meeting the main-business-income test (broadly, the bulk of your income coming from that qualifying business). No one can promise the rate from an address — what we can do is confirm whether your company qualifies and structure your setup properly. The specifics of how we arrange the address and substance are handled in consultation.
The honest answer for foreign founders
It's the most common question — and the most common way a setup goes wrong. Here's how we handle it.
Don't risk it
A cheap virtual office or mailbox may register a company on paper, but it can fall short for the 15% rate, for banking, and under official checks. We don't offer that.
The right way
Our registered address is real and compliant, built to satisfy FTP substance requirements. It's the “virtual office” people want, done properly.
Done for you
We provide the address and handle the compliance side, so eligible companies get access to the FTP advantages without having to work out the rules themselves.
We handle it, so you don't have to worry about it
The point of our workspace service is simple: you shouldn't have to become an expert in Hainan's address and substance rules to benefit from the Free Trade Port. We provide a qualifying, compliant registered address, keep the compliance side in order, and tell you honestly whether your company qualifies for the 15% rate — and what else it would take. No mailbox shortcuts, no office you're forced to lease and sit in, and no promises we can't stand behind — just the address and the compliance, handled.
