Hello,

mary SD

OHHH . i did all requirements for company registration & canton fair . i need information about how do biz in china , how to live there . costs and difficulties ....

The only way to get that information is to take a trip and visit Ningbo yourself.
You say you have suppliers there... ask them to provide you or help you find an interpreter/guide.

Life in China isn't very different from life around the world. You have to live in China to learn about the culture, more specifically to learn about Ningbo you have to live in Ningbo and experience it yourself... no one in the entire world can see life in China the way your own eyes will see it. I can write a book about Shenzhen and it will be a different view of Shenzhen than any other book.

How to do biz in China? In which respect? You want to rent an office a store or shop? You want to know how to advertise? You want to know where to get equipment or office supplies? How to get a phones or Internet? Where to buy computers? What is it that you want to know?

Transportation? What do you mean by that? How to take the bus from your apartment to your company? How to get a taxi? How to buy a plane ticket or a train ticket? How to buy a car or get a drivers permit? What does the word tranportation mean to you?

Life expenses? Such as what? Rent? Food? Electricity? Gaz? Clothes? Cars? Internet, etc..?

How to find a staff is probably no different in Ningbo than in any other city. Newspapers, Websites, head hunters, HR agencies, etc...


China is no different than any other country, Ningbo is not much different than any other city. And business is business no matter where you are in the world.

If you want help then you better ask some SPECIFIC questions or else you will not get any replies and just get as frustrated as we are trying to get you to understand your questions are TOO VAGUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is much better.... now anyone near or in Ningbo can help you. I'm in Shenzhen, so I cannot give you any specific answers about Ningbo.
However I still believe the best way is to find an interpreter/guide who is familiar with Ningbo. You can Google "Ningbo interpreters", translators, guide, etc. Anyone advertising on the internet will be found.
A person like this can answer all of your questions, help you find a store, warehouse, get you set up with phones, internet, etc.
Of course you will have to pay for this service but the fees are nominal, about 100-200 rmb a day in some cases and well worth it.
If you do not find such a person in Ningbo. Do a similar search using Shanghai or Hangzhou (the two closest cities to Ningbo).

When it comes to money, there are many Money Exchange offices that can wire money to international banks. Also Western Union is commonly found at China Post Bank branches and also ABC Bank branches but China Post is easiest.
Finding a financial advisor is also very beneficial.
