There are three types of WFOE, namely: Manufacturing WFOE, if it manufactures in China; Consultancy WFOE, if it offers consultancy or service; and Trading WFOE (or FICE, Foreign-Investment Commercial Enterprise), if it does trading, wholesale, retail or franchising in China.The main advantages of establishing a WFOE includes: ●Full control of your company, to implement your investment strategy without additional stipulations. ●Can carry out business functions like normal Chinese companies, such as being able to issue invoices (Fapiao) to customers in RMB and receive revenues in RMB.●Can repatriate profits back to the home country without prior approval from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE).

If you wish to make amendments to the business scope, you need to file further applications and obtain approval from relevant authorities. 2.Registered and paid up capitalThough there is no minimum registered capital required, RMB 100,000 ~ RMB 500,000 (Approx. USD$15,000- 75,000) is the common range for minimum investment capital to be approved for Consulting, Service and Hi-Tech WFOE registration in China. However, in practice, the authority will usually review your business scope and location on a case-by-case basis. After your WOFE has been approved, you need to inject initial paid-up capital within 3 months, the initial injection could amount to 20% of the registered capital.
