However, when a company decides to close its operations in China, it is essential to follow the proper company deregistration procedure to avoid any impact on its ability to do business with China in the future. Here, our team of tax, financial, and legal experts supports all aspects of company closure in China.\r\n<h3>Profit Repatriation<\/h3>\r\nThe primary objective for most foreign-invested enterprises in China is to earn a return on their investment. However, since repatriating funds out of China is considered a strenuous challenge due to China\u2019s foreign exchange controls, companies with operations in China must develop a sound profit repatriation strategy. We support our clients with all known strategies to repatriate profit out of China, including dividends, service fees, royalties, reimbursements, and intercompany loans, where we advise on the tax impact, requirements, and procedure of the chosen profit repatriation method.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MSA offers business support and consulting services to support clients&#8217; success in China.
