How to Verify a Chinese Exporter Using Company Registration Data
Before you ship or pay, verify your Chinese exporter using company registration data. Learn how Chinverify helps confirm export licenses and legitimacy.
🚢 Why Verify a Chinese Exporter?
When you're importing goods, you're trusting the exporter with your money and cargo. But not every company that claims to 'export' is legally registered to do so. That's where Chinverify comes in.
🔍 Step 1: Check the Exporter's Registration Details
Search the company on Chinverify.com. Look for:
- Company type: 'Trading' or 'Import/Export'
- Registration authority and business scope
- Unified Social Credit Code (USCC)
🧾 Step 2: Confirm Export Qualifications
Many fake exporters don't actually have an export license. Chinverify helps you verify if 'import/export of goods and technologies' is listed in their business scope — a must-have for legal exporters.
⚖️ Step 3: Check Legal Representative and Company Status
Make sure the legal representative matches the contact person or bank account holder. Also, confirm the company is active, not 'revoked' or 'cancelled.'
🌍 Step 4: Cross-Verify with Customs Data
If available, check if the exporter has recent customs records. Chinverify integrates with trade databases to help identify real exporting activity.
🚀 Stay Safe in International Trade
Avoid export scams by verifying company registration data. Use Chinverify to confirm exporter legitimacy, export qualifications, and company status — before you ship or pay.
