Build your next chapter in China with 100% ownership in eligible sectors, Work Visa for you and family sorted, and your bank account activated.
Straight forward, officially recognize pathway to build your business and life in China.
Myanmar passport holders welcome. We review your business, documents and work-permit eligibility before recommending a package.
Secure and 100% ownership of your company is just the beginning. You also get access to more advance technology, more skill and affordable workforce and access to the largest consumer segment in the world.
Thailand’s ordinary company-sponsored routes require 4 Thai staff and THB2,000,000 paid up capital for each foreign employee. China has no equivalent general nationwide 4:1 hiring ratio in its standard work-permit framework.
China still assesses the real business, job and applicant, with local requirements to confirm. [1]
Many activities in China allow full foreign ownership. You can build the company around your own shareholders and commercial plan, subject to the negative list and licensing rules. Thailand restricts foreign participation in most service and trading activities.
Qualifying Chinese small, low-profit companies can enjoy a 5% effective corporate income tax rate. Eligible small-scale taxpayers can apply 1% VAT to qualifying transactions. Both concessions currently run through December 2027.
The 5% rate requires total annual taxable profit up to RMB3m, no more than 300 employees, assets up to RMB50m and an eligible industry. VAT eligibility, exclusions and input-credit rules apply. [3]
China’s population of around 1.4 billion is approximately 20 times Thailand’s. Its broad industrial base and large workforce give founders more options for sourcing, manufacturing partnerships and expansion.
A low incorporation fee can be only the beginning. Compare office costs, accounting, staffing, capital and the route that lets you work legally.
| What matters | China opportunity | Thailand consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Ownership | 100% foreign ownership in many eligible activities. | Many services and trading activities requires majority Thai ownership structure. |
| Staffing & capital | No general nationwide 4:1 ratio. Plan a genuine operating business and confirm local expectations. | Ordinary routes commonly involve 4 Thai staff per foreign employee for every 1 Visa & Work Permit and THB2m paid-up capital per foreign hire. Exceptions apply. |
| Corporate tax | 5% effective CIT for eligible companies whose total annual taxable profit is within RMB3m. | Standard 20%; qualifying SMEs have progressive 0%, 15% and 20% bands. |
| Work & residence | A straight-forward employer, work-permit and residence application route for an eligible founder. | Company formation, work permission and immigration extensions must each satisfy the relevant conditions. |

No. The strongest comparison is your total first-year budget for the same business and immigration needs. Our China company package is THB285,000 with 12 months of office space for two people, accounting and tax filing, and work/residence application support. A lower Thai incorporation quote may exclude these items. We compare the full scope before recommending a route.
Full foreign ownership is available in many sectors. Your exact business activities must be checked against China’s foreign-investment negative list and sector licensing rules. Approval for one activity does not automatically cover every service or product you wish to sell.
Yes, we welcome Myanmar passport holders for an individual eligibility assessment. We review your proposed activity, qualifications, documents, funding and chosen city. Nationality, personal history and the relevant authority’s rules can affect an application; no passport receives an automatic approval guarantee.
No. Your company and proposed job must qualify, and you must meet the applicable work-permit criteria. The usual route involves work-permit approval, a Z visa where required, and a work-related residence permit. One year is the intended package term; the authorities determine the approved validity.
Package 1 at THB285,000 includes your own company registration, first-year accounting and tax filing, and a one-year serviced office for two people. Package 2 at THB215,000 is work/residence application support and personal banking/payment setup assistance; it does not include your own company, office or accounting. Its sponsoring employer and genuine job role must be confirmed before enrolment.
Family application assistance is THB18,000 per person. A long-term S1 route may be available for an eligible spouse, children under 18 and parents, based on the principal applicant’s residence status and proof of relationship. Other relatives or adult children require a separate eligibility review. A family residence permit does not itself authorise employment.
We determine an appropriate capital commitment from your activity, city, licensing requirements and operating budget. Package fees are not your company’s capital. New Chinese limited liability companies generally must complete their subscribed capital contributions within five years, subject to applicable rules; operational or sector requirements can require funding earlier.
Myanmar passport holders can ask about UnionSPACE’s approval-or-money-back service promise for Package 2. Eligibility, the approval being covered, refundable amounts, exclusions and timing must be set out in a written agreement before payment. This is a commercial refund promise, not a guarantee that a government authority will approve an application.
No. Package 1 includes tourist visa application assistance and assistance with up to three eligible extension applications. Each application needs a valid legal basis, and three consecutive extensions are not an automatic entitlement. Permitted stay depends on entry status, nationality and immigration decisions. Tourist status does not permit employment in Thailand.
The quotation will identify the business scope, work-permit route, office location, accounting volume, bank assistance, tax treatment, government and third-party fees, deposits, translation or legalisation costs, travel requirements and renewal charges. These are confirmed before you commit; the headline package is not your complete living and operating budget.
Our team speaks English, Chinese (Mandarin), Russian, Kazakh, Burmese, Thai, and Indonesian — Monday to Friday, 9AM–6PM Bangkok time.
