Since January 1, 2020, the Foreign Investment Law of the People's Republic of China officially came into effect. Article 34 stipulates that “The State establishes a system for foreign investment information reporting. Foreign investors or foreign-invested enterprises shall submit investment information to the competent commerce departments through the enterprise registration system and the enterprise credit information publicity system.” Therefore, as of January 1, 2020, the approval and filing management system for foreign-invested enterprises has been abolished, and there is no longer a need for filing or obtaining a filing receipt when establishing or changing a foreign-invested enterprise.
