Introduction

Thousands of overseas buyers travel to Guangzhou annually for the Canton Fair. Entering the Chinese market involves multiple administrative tasks: exhibition invitation paperwork, visa handling, mainland or Hong‑Kong company registration, corporate bank account setup and ongoing compliance work. Unfamiliarity with local regulations often creates roadblocks for foreign investors. This article introduces KERUI’s services for global business partners through three authentic client stories.

I. Our Services Demonstrated by Real Client Cases

1. Canton Fair & Short‑Term Business Trip Support (Libyan Client)

We pre‑prepared and secured the official Canton Fair invitation letter for this Libyan buyer. After his arrival, he discovered his business visa would expire before the end of his sourcing schedule.

We guided him on document requirements, compiled supporting materials and submitted his visa‑extension application. Finally, he successfully concluded new business deals throughout the fair without interruptions.

2. Mainland Company Registration & Foreign National Work Visa Service (Jordanian Client)

Impressed by China’s business prospects after attending the Canton Fair, a Jordanian client decided to launch his startup locally and consulted us on company incorporation together with work‑visa application.

Our deliverables included

Feasibility assessment for his foreign‑invested enterprise

Matching a valid registered address, compiling full incorporation documents and submitting registration filings

Supported corporate bank‑account opening and managed the whole procedure for his work permit and residence permit

In the end, he obtained his Guangzhou‑registered entity and valid Chinese work visa.

3. Hong Kong Company Setup for Cross‑Border Trade (US Client)

Engaged in worldwide trade, our US client struggled with cumbersome cross‑border fund transfers.

We advised him to register a Hong Kong company and open its corporate bank account to simplify global payments and collections, raising operational efficiency when cooperating with Chinese suppliers.

Our team organised all incorporation paperwork and prepared required documents for his subsequent bank‑account application.
