Entering the German market
Your reliable partners.
China as an opportunity for German companies – tax and the legal situation
The People’s Republic is currently implementing its Made in China 2025 strategy and intensifying its economic transformation and the modernisation of the country. China intends to become the leading industrialised nation and offers foreign companies in the Far East excellent investment opportunities. For example, China is planning to make direct investments easier – an opportunity for German companies.
Key points in brief
- The cultural differences between China and Germany are large, and when doing deals, transactions and M&A there are particular ways of doing things.
- The tax and legal conditions for deals and M&A are fundamentally different from those in Europe. As a member of the Grant Thornton network, our experts offer local assistance on the spot.
- Fluent language skills are a must-have in the Middle Kingdom. Our local partners are native speakers who speak on behalf of German companies.
- Chinese employment regulations and legislation must be observed.
China – the most populous market in the world
At 1.4 billion inhabitants, China is the most populous country in the world – an enormous sales market and as such an opportunity for German companies to increase their economic potential. As a country with an affinity for technology and that loves innovation, China is becoming ever more interesting to German investors.
