Hainan Island is China's largest free trade port — a designated zone with its own tax rules, customs policies, and business regulations. Think of it as China's answer to Singapore, but with access to 1.4 billion consumers.
Companies registered in Hainan pay 15% corporate tax — compared to 25% mainland China standard. Most imported goods enter Hainan duty-free. This is the lowest tax rate available to foreign-owned businesses in China.
Register your company in Hainan, and you qualify for a work permit and residence permit. The process is faster and more predictable than European DNV programmes — and the tax savings are real.
