Lawyers Larry Zhou and Avon Zhao from Landing (Shenzhen) Law Office received a consultation from a Dubai client. The client had registered his marriage with a Chinese woman in Yunnan, China, but the couple has been separated since 2013—with the client residing and working in Dubai on a long-term basis, while the wife has been living in Thailand permanently and only returning to her hometown in China occasionally with no fixed schedule. After years of separation, the client ma

In international sales of goods, malicious default on the balance payment by overseas buyers is a high-frequency dispute, which not only infringes on the rights and interests of Chinese suppliers but also triggers capital turnover risks. Recently, our law firm successfully recovered $50,000 overdue balance payment from an Iranian buyer on behalf of a supplier in Shandong, efficiently resolving the cross-border debt collection challenge. In early 2024, the supplier entered int

The Client provided complete design drawings, technical specifications, and production plans, requiring the suppliers to strictly adhere to these standards during manufacturing.

In cross-border trade, many exporters assume “shipment made, payment received—case closed,” only to discover hidden legal risks after the deal is done.  Recently, a Foshan manufacturer was hauled before the International Commercial Arbitration Court ("ICAC") at the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry by its Russian buyer, who alleged quality defects and demanded damages. Caught between contesting the claims and ignoring the case (but risking later enforcement), the Fosha

In January 2022, a Ghanaian company encountered a chemical materials exporter through Made-in-China.com , who claimed to be a Tianjin-based company in China. Subsequently, the parties negotiated via email, and the seller issued proforma invoices, confirming two purchase orders in January and May 2022, respectively.  In the proforma invoices provided by the seller, the letterhead displayed the name of the seller’s Hong Kong company, and the payment was directed to the Hong Kon

In 2025, the cooperation between a South African enterprise (hereinafter referred to as the "Client") and a factory in Dongguan, China, reached an impasse: the South African Client refused to take delivery of the goods and demanded the factory refund the advance payment, suspecting that the factory had failed to produce the goods as required or that the products did not meet the agreed standards; in response, the Dongguan factory stated that all goods had been fully manufactu
