SZ launches one-stop foreign investment online service

Shenzhen's commerce bureau officially launched its Foreign Investment Service Zone on the "Shen i Qi" website (www.szsiq.com) Monday.

The one-stop online service aims to meet foreign-invested enterprises’ needs in business operations and further enhance the rule of law, internationalization and foreign investment facilitation in Shenzhen, bureau officials said.

The service zone features three main sections, namely business operation, investment and taxation, and information submission.

Business operation services cover corporate establishment, alteration, cancellation, social security and housing allowance registration. Investment and taxation services cover bank account opening appointment, foreign currency registration appointment, visa processing, real-name taxation certification and invoice application. The information submission section features information report modification and annual report filings by foreign-invested corporations and foreign representative offices.

The launch of the online service is part of the city's slew of measures to attract foreign capital.
