What you can establish

Current and legacy identifiers

China consolidated several identifiers into the unified social credit code. Older documents can contain a separate registration number, organisation code or tax number. Keep document dates and entity changes in view when comparing them.

What to record in your vendor file

  • Exact Chinese legal name.
  • Unified social credit code and any relevant legacy number.
  • Entity status and incorporation date at the time of review.
  • Registered address and legal representative.
  • The source document and review date.

Common questions

Common questions

Where is the registration number on a Chinese licence?

Look for the unified social credit code near the top of a current mainland business licence. It is normally an 18-character combination of numbers and capital letters.

Do Hong Kong companies use the same code?

No. Hong Kong has its own company registration and business registration systems. A mainland unified social credit code should not be expected for a Hong Kong entity.
