Chinese Companies Expanding to the U.S.

The U.S. entity, state, bank and tax set-up for a Chinese company entering the U.S. market, and the ongoing accounting, payroll and tax filings once it operates.

What is included

  • Structure: U.S. subsidiary, branch or LLC, and where to form it
  • Formation, EIN, registered agent and state registrations
  • Bookkeeping in U.S. GAAP with reporting back to the parent in Chinese
  • Payroll for local and assigned employees
  • Corporate returns with Forms 5472 and treaty positions

One team on both sides

We work with your finance team in Chinese, keep the U.S. books in English and reconcile the two, so the parent company’s consolidation and the U.S. tax return agree.

Common questions

Should the U.S. company be an LLC or a corporation?

For a Chinese parent a C corporation is common, because a foreign-owned LLC creates U.S. filing duties for the parent itself. We review your plans before choosing.
