How much does it cost to register a company in Hainan?

Short Answer

The cost of registering a Hainan company depends on whether the company only needs basic registration or also needs address support, bank account opening, bookkeeping, tax filing, foreign investment documents, trade qualifications or structure planning.

Who This Applies To

• Business owners across China planning to use a Hainan entity for real business, tax compliance or group planning.
• Foreign investors, overseas companies, trading teams and cross-border e-commerce operators evaluating Hainan Free Trade Port opportunities.
• High-profit companies, group companies and founders preparing tax planning, equity structure, financing or pre-IPO compliance.

Key Points to Review

• Whether the company uses a real office, leased address, park address or hosted registered address.
• Whether the shareholder is a domestic individual, domestic company, foreign individual or overseas company.
• Whether bank account opening, tax registration, invoice setup and bookkeeping are included.
• Whether the project involves foreign trade, WFOE setup, tax planning, holding platform or capital planning.

Practical Path

• Separate one-time registration costs from long-term maintenance costs.
• Confirm whether address, banking, tax and bookkeeping are needed together.
• Estimate extra document costs if foreign shareholders or overseas companies are involved.
• Plan annual maintenance before deciding whether the Hainan company should be registered.

Common Risk

A very low registration price may not include banking, tax registration, bookkeeping, address maintenance or later compliance support.

Dingdang Advisory View

For serious business use, Hainan company cost should be reviewed as a full-year compliance budget, not only a one-time license fee.
