Mapping the PRC approvals and filings an overseas acquisition by a Chinese investing entity depends on, and sequencing them against the deal's timetable.
What this covers
- An approval map for the specific target and amount, showing which authority decides what
- A PRC approval timetable given to the deal's counsel, who drafts the conditions precedent and the long-stop date
- The filing sequence and evidence pack assembled before signing
- Coordination with foreign counsel and with the bank on what each needs and when
- Post-closing registrations and reporting placed on the entity's calendar
- A status record the deal team can read at any point

The approvals mapped for the dealWhich authority decides what, in which order, on what evidence.
An overseas acquisition by a Chinese investing entity depends on PRC approvals as well as the target's own. The agreement usually makes them conditions precedent, and the long-stop date is only realistic if the people who set it knew how long the PRC process runs.
Counsel drafts, we supply the PRC timetableConditions precedent and the long-stop date rest on how long the PRC process runs.
We map the approvals for the specific deal — which authority decides what, in which order, and on what evidence — and give that to the deal's counsel before signing. Drafting the conditions and the long-stop date is counsel's; the map is what lets them draft realistically.
Closing is not the endBank registrations and reports follow, and go on the calendar the day the deal closes.
Closing does not end it. Registrations at the bank and reports to the authorities follow, and for a Hainan platform they also touch the position behind the exemption on outbound income. These go on the calendar the day the deal closes.
One status recordReadable by anyone on the deal team at any point.
Throughout we work alongside foreign counsel, the bank, and the investing entity's own advisers, and we keep a status record anyone on the deal team can read. We do not advise on the price, the structure of the acquisition, or the law of the target's jurisdiction.
