Three Options to Onboard Your Business in China

Onboarding With a Chinese Entity

If you already have an entity in China, you can apply to join Alibaba Cloud Marketplace and get professional support from technical and marketing specialists to help you complete your onboarding process. You can also purchase Alibaba Cloud services to guarantee full compliance with local market regulations, customize your products and content to the local language and culture, annotate your data for high-quality AI training, tailor your websites (including text and multimedia content for the Chinese market), and onboard your products and solutions on the Alibaba Cloud Marketplace.

What Alibaba Cloud Can Offer:

  • Comply with Chinese market regulations
    Localize your products

Onboarding Without a Chinese Entity

If you do not have an entity in China (nor intend to register one), you can onboard your business to the Chinese market through an agent that will execute your business operations through Alibaba Cloud services and Marketplace. After joining the Alibaba Cloud Technology Partner Program, the agent will leverage these services to help you tailor and transform your business to the local market with the information you provide.

What Alibaba Cloud Agent Can Offer:

  • Comply with Chinese market regulations
    Integrate your products with Alibaba Cloud
    Localize your products
    Become an Alibaba Cloud Marketplace partner
    Launch your products on Alibaba Cloud Marketplace

This can support your market growth through joint solutions involving deep integration with Alibaba Cloud products. Alibaba Cloud will provide these services with the information you provide.
