Select all that apply. If you select 'Yes' for any route, a member of the team will be in touch to discuss in more detail.

Yes — Direct import

When a brand's finished products are manufactured outside of Mainland China, and then imported for sale and distribution within Mainland China (e.g. in stores, via a distributor, or on domestic e-commerce sites). In this case the finished products may also be stored in a warehouse in Mainland China before sale.

Yes — Postal order

When a brand ships own brand finished products from outside Mainland China directly to a consumer's home address in Mainland China. These would be personal purchases by the consumer, not bulk to sell on.

Yes — Cross border e-commerce (CBEC)

When a brand's finished products are manufactured outside of Mainland China and then marketed and sold via an e-commerce site that uses warehouses to store the brand's products before shipping directly to consumers in Mainland China. Warehouses used for CBEC are typically located outside Mainland China, but may sometimes be bonded warehouses within Mainland China.

Yes — Domestic manufacture & retail

When a brand's finished products are manufactured, either wholly or partly, in Mainland China for sale within Mainland China also (either in stores or on domestic e-commerce sites). They could also be stored in warehouses in Mainland China before sale.

By submitting, your enquiry will be sent to the programme team for review.
