Change of Name for Shenzhen Branch-Procedures and Fees 
 
Summary

Our fees for handling the change of name for a Shenzhen branch are  RMB9,000  and our fees cover the services listed in Section 1(1) of this quotation. Our service fees, however, do not include the payment of official change filing charges.
