Brief introduction of foreign-funded companies
The foreign investors of a foreign-capital enterprise may be foreign enterprises, other economic organizations and individuals. Foreign-funded enterprises are established in China according to the laws of China, so they are different from the branches of foreign enterprises and other economic organizations in China. Foreign-funded enterprises are independent economic entities, operating independently, accounting independently and bearing legal responsibilities independently. As far as organizational forms are concerned, foreign-funded enterprises can be legal persons or non-legal persons. A foreign-funded enterprise with legal personality has obtained legal personality according to law, and its organizational form is generally a limited liability company. The liability of foreign investors to the enterprise is limited to the amount of their subscribed capital contribution. A foreign-invested enterprise that does not form a legal person organization may take the form of partnership or individual proprietorship. Partnership here refers to an enterprise established in China by two or more foreign legal persons or natural persons, and its legal basis is analogously applicable to the provisions of the General Principles of the Civil Law on individual partnership and joint venture. A sole proprietorship enterprise refers to an enterprise established by a foreign investor in China according to law, and the foreign investor shall bear unlimited liability for the debts of the enterprise.
