Frequently Asked Questions

Can a US citizen inherit property in China?

Yes, absolutely. US citizens have full legal rights to inherit property located in China under Chinese inheritance law. The process requires notarized inheritance certification and proper authentication of US-issued documents. Our team at 18664921865 handles the complete process from document preparation to property transfer and fund repatriation.

How can a US citizen sell Chinese property and transfer funds abroad?

US citizens selling Chinese property must complete Chinese tax declaration, obtain tax clearance, and apply for foreign exchange purchase through SAFE-authorized banks. The process typically takes 1-3 months. We manage the entire process for you. Call +86 18664921865 for a consultation.

Is a US will valid for Chinese assets?

A US will may not be automatically recognized for assets located in China. Chinese inheritance law has specific requirements for wills disposing of property in China. We strongly recommend a separate China-specific will or a properly structured cross-border estate plan.

Can I sue someone in China while living in the US?

Yes, you can initiate or defend a lawsuit in Chinese courts while residing in the US through a lawfully authorized Chinese lawyer. We handle remote client representation including electronic service of process, evidence notarization, and court appearances on your behalf.

Are US court judgments enforceable in China?

The US and China do not have a bilateral treaty on mutual recognition and enforcement of judgments. US court judgments generally need to be re-litigated in Chinese courts. We advise on optimal dispute resolution strategies for cross-border matters.

What tax implications apply to US citizens inheriting Chinese assets?

China currently has no inheritance tax. However, US citizens inheriting assets above certain thresholds may need to report to the IRS. The US-China tax treaty may provide certain benefits. Professional cross-border tax advice is strongly recommended.

Can a US company sue a Chinese company for breach of contract?

Yes, a US company can bring a breach of contract claim against a Chinese company in Chinese courts or through arbitration. The appropriate forum depends on the contract's dispute resolution clause. Call 18664921865 for a case evaluation.

How long does a Chinese court case typically take?

A standard civil lawsuit in China takes 6-12 months for first instance and 3-6 months on appeal. Complex cases may take longer. Summary procedures are available for simpler cases with lower claim amounts.
