An Introduction To Doing Business In China 2022

China continues to be an attractive and reliable investment destination despite multiple external headwinds like the ongoing pandemic and geopolitical tensions. In 2020, China overtook the US to become the world’s largest foreign direct investment (FDI) recipient and the country expects FDI to rise 10.8 percent year-on-year to RMB 1 trillion (US$160 billion) in 2021. Indicative of business optimism, 41,600 foreign-invested enterprises were newly established in the first three quarters of 2021.

An Introduction To Doing Business In India 2022

India is pushing ahead with its intention to expand the contribution of its manufacturing sector to the GDP. The goal for the Modi government is to narrow existing gaps in local supply chains and bolster production capacity in critical areas of the new economy. In turn, this will also enhance India’s export-oriented manufacturing potential, establish the country’s higher value in the global supply chain, and lower sector-wise import dependencies.

11 New Laws That May Affect Your China Business In 2022

Multiple new laws and regulations that affect doing business in China came into force on January 1, 2022. Foreign investors and businesses engaging in cosmetics, food and beverage, import and export, and elder care should pay special attention.

2022 Import-Export Taxes and Duties in China

This article explains three types of taxes – value-added tax (VAT), consumption tax, and customs duties – that foreign companies exporting to or importing from China must understand. Starting January 1, 2022, China has further adjusted parts of its customs duties, including most-favored-nation (MFN) duty rates, conventional duty rates, and provisional duty rates for some import products. Read the section on customs duties in this article for more information.

Tax Exempt Benefits For China Expats Extended Until End 2023

The Chinese government has extended the preferential IIT policy on foreigners’ fringe benefits to the end of 2023. Previously, from 2022, foreigners working in China were to lose some tax-free fringe benefits (for example, housing rental, children’s education costs, and language training costs). This would have resulted in larger tax liability for some higher-earning foreign workers.

Vietnam's Year In Review And Outlook For 2022

Just like the EU-Vietnam free trade agreement (EVFTA), the UK-Vietnam free trade agreement (UKVFTA), and the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership CPTPP, the RCEP will reduce tariffs and set trade rules, and help link supply chains, particularly as governments grapple with COVID-19 effects. The FTA is expected to cover all aspects of the business including trade, services, e-commerce, telecommunications, and copyright though negotiations over some aspects still need to be finalized. Tariffs are expected to be reduced within 20 years.

RCEP And Vietnam: New Opportunities For Investors

Investing In India's Textiles Sector

India’s textiles sector is driven by the country’s abundant availability of raw materials and labor, with the market size standing at US$140.4 billion in 2020, and expected to grow to US$223 billion by 2021. The sector is currently in need of foreign investments as it shifts its focus to the production of handloom fabrics, man-made fibers, and technical textiles. To attract foreign investors, the government of India has ensured that 100 percent FDI is allowed in the textiles sector without needing any government approval. Various schemes have been introduced to further develop the industrial ecosystem, including industrial parks, skills development, and production-linked incentives.

China Opens New Consulate In Bandar Abbas To Support Iranian Belt & Road

Beijing has anticipated a leading role in developing the Makran region, the coastal strip along Iran’s Sistan-Baluchestan province and Pakistan’s Balochistan, where Beijing already has a 40-year multi-billion-dollar agreement with Islamabad to develop Gwadar port.
