With the island-wide customs closure of the Hainan Free Trade Port officially taking effect in December 2025, Hainan has moved into a new phase of regulatory and commercial liberalisation.

It is not merely a trade facilitation measure - it represents a systemic regulatory redesign that may affect how foreign enterprises allocate functions, assets, and risks within China. Early-stage strategic alignment will be critical for investors seeking to leverage preferential treatment while mitigating regulatory exposure.

Led by our International Business Advisory Manager, Radomir Tomovic, Business Advisory Expert, Richie He, and Director of Audit Services, Daisy Huang, we invite you to the upcoming webinar, where we adopt a policy-technical lens suitable for investors and professionals requiring precision, regulatory clarity, and actionable insights.
