  • 2. ROs are now more expensive to operate than a FICE or WFOE
  • foreign invested commercial enterprises (FICE) These are typically used for the following business activities: • Import-export and distribution • Retailing: selling goods and related services to individuals from a fixed location, in addition to TV, telephone, mail order, internet and vending machines, • Wholesaling: selling goods and related services to companies and industry, trade or other organizations • Agencies, brokerages: representative transactions on the basis of provisions • Franchising Use of wholly foreign owned enterprises (WFOE) in the services industry • Consulting, other professional services • Quality control, after sales services, product design, technical support, sampling (although minimum amount permitted)
  • WFOEs may also be used for manufacturing.
  • the establishment of both a FICE and a WFOE are rather more complex than an RO
  • The structuring and application of the new FICE/WFOE can be combined at the same time as the RO closure.
