Joint Ventures Company registration in china
Joint Ventures in China are of two types
•         Equity Joint Ventures
•         Cooperative Joint Ventures
Joint-Venture, usually is an arrangement where both the domestic 
entity and international entity work together. It is type of a 
company controlled by both foreign and Chinese partners.
A Joint-Venture usually is created for the purpose transfer of 
technology. Given the very usual problems of infringement 
associated with intellectual property that plagues China, foreign 
companies who intend to make or sell high value products (such as 
a patented product or software), often prefer to opt for a WFOE.
In case, that the international entity wishes to operate in a 
“restricted” industrial sector, a Joint-Venture is the only option. 
WFOE and Joint-Venture are very similar in nature.
