UAE setup for China residents.
UAE incorporation for Chinese nationals and residents. SAFE outbound investment compliance, source-of-wealth documentation.
Key China-specific considerations
- SAFE compliance — China State Administration of Foreign Exchange rules on outbound investment.
- CFC rules — Chinese-resident shareholders may face attribution.
- Chinese-language support — available via partner counsel.
- Common jurisdictions for Chinese founders — Hong Kong remains common; UAE growing fast.
Recommended UAE jurisdictions
We coordinate with China-side tax counsel on departure and CFC considerations where relevant. For UAE-side setup, our most common picks are IFZA, DMCC and ADGM depending on activity and scale.
Not China tax advice. We coordinate with home-country counsel on residency, exit and CFC considerations.
