Non-Trade Outbound Payment Compliance Services
1. Why Non-Trade Outbound Payments Are Challenging for FIEs in China
For non-trade outbound payments (e.g., service fees, tech fees, management fees, consulting fees, dividends, related-party transactions), the challenges are not simply “fill out a form and go to the bank.” In real practice, foreign-invested enterprises often face:
• Payment rejections due to incomplete documentation
• SAFE (State Administration of Foreign Exchange) queries about justification
• Tax authorities demanding explanations on payment nature
• Mismatches between FX payment logic and tax position
• Contract, invoice, and expense misalignment
• Inability to defend the payment during audits/inspections
The issue isn’t procedural — it’s whether your compliance logic is defensible and explainable.
We deliver compliance-oriented advisory services for non-trade outbound payments, not mere “procedure handling.” The service focuses on helping foreign-invested enterprises:
• ✔ Validate the legitimacy and tax impact of payments
• ✔ Design defensible justification logic for banks, SAFE, and tax authorities
• ✔ Establish internal controls and approval processes
• ✔ Reduce risk of audits, inspections, and regulatory queries
