Bank transfers now available in mainland China

November 22nd, 2023 shadmin

We are happy to announce that our suspension of bank transfers in China has come to an end and we are again able to offer bank transfer as payment option for our mainland China customers. Clients in mainland China will be able to pay in Chinese Yuans (RMB) to our corporate account in Shanghai (with CITIC Bank) and also request an official tax invoice (Fapiao) for that payment.

Please note that for all payments of less than RMB1,000, we will be charging a RMB20 additional fee to cover for the delivery of the Fapiao to by Shunfeng Express to your address in China.

The fapiao request has also been simplified and can be done directly by opening a ticket to our billing department. We are working on launching a form for Fapiao requests in the near future.

Suspension of bank transfer payment options for mainland China customers

May 19th, 2023 shadmin

Due to recent changes in regulations on cross border intra-company transactions and transfer pricing regulations in China, the option to pay invoices to our Shanghai company account at CITIC bank is temporarily suspended. Clients in mainland China will need to pay their invoices through our Alipay account only, or make a wire transfer to our bank account in Hong Kong directly.

Sinohosting will also stop issuing tax invoices (fapiaos) until further notice, as the company is operated from Hong Kong.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
