The National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System (NECIPS) was established by China in 2014 as a crucial step towards safeguarding the interests of business creditors. This system makes company information available to the general public and sources its data from various government departments and market entities, including all local Industrial and Commercial Administrations in China. The companies, regardless of their size, be it large corporations, farmers and professional cooperatives, or individual industrial and commercial entities across the country, are accountable for the accuracy and legality of the information they provide.

5. Registered Address

6. Business Scope

In addition to individual profiles, the database contains profiles of legal entities that provide vital information, such as shareholders, directors, legal representatives, general managers, and supervisors. It also includes identifying details like addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers. You can utilise the database to check if the company is listed on the Official List of Dishonest Persons Subject to Enforcement and if it has been penalized by authorities.
