Lawyers Avon and Laurie Assisted Egyptian Client in Establishing Company in Zhongshan

Establishing foreign-invested enterprises in different cities, and even in different counties or districts, involves varying policy requirements. Therefore, it is crucial to effectively coordinate and synchronize communications among multiple parties, including government departments, company secretaries, and clients.

In early 2024, an Egyptian client planned to set up a wholly-owned company in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province. The client sought professional consultation from the team of lawyer Larry Zhou at Landing (Shenzhen) Law Office. Lawyer Larry's team accepted the assignment and appointed lawyers Avon Zhao and Laurie to provide service support.

During the establishment process, the Egyptian client encountered numerous issues, such as whether the shareholder(s) should be the company or individual, the notarization and Hague Apostille requirements for the initiators' identity documents, and the translation of Hague Apostille documents. In response to these issues, our lawyers demonstrated professionalism and dedication. Based on the client's specific situation and the relevant regulations in Zhongshan City, they developed a detailed procedural guide, clearly outlining every step of company registration and the required documents to ensure the client had a clear understanding of the entire process.

In addition, our lawyers prepared the necessary documents for the client and provided detailed guidance on notarization, Apostille, and signing application documents in Egypt. Each step was strictly supervised, especially in accordance with the requirements of the Zhongshan industrial and commercial department. The notarized and Apostilled documents were accurately translated one by one to ensure that all documents were complete and in compliance with Chinese laws and regulations. The team also paid special attention to the timeliness and compliance of the documents, avoiding any approval delays due to document issues.

Regarding the client's specific needs, Lawyer Larry's team provided comprehensive legal advice. They assisted the client in determining the shareholder equity ratio, business scope filing, and the arrangement of senior management personnel, including directors, general managers, and supervisors. This ensured that the client, as the major shareholder, had actual control over the company and provided a guarantee for its stable operation.

During the application stage, Lawyer Larry's team communicated efficiently with the relevant government departments, promptly resolving any issues encountered during the approval process and ensuring a smooth and delay-free procedure. Ultimately, with the professional support of Lawyer Larry's team, the Egyptian client successfully established a wholly foreign-owned enterprise in Zhongshan, obtaining the business license and company seal, and thus embarking on their business journey in Zhongshan.

The client highly praised the services provided by Lawyer Larry's team, stating that their professional capabilities and dedication exceeded expectations. The team provided great confidence and assistance throughout the process, and the client was very satisfied with the outcome of the cooperation.
