The
state owned enterprises name as the following
order :“City + Words + Industry + Organization
form ”. The differences
between domestic enterprises
and foreign enterprises lie
in whether there are phrases
like“Province,
City and County”after“City name”.
Usually there are
three ways of naming.
While“Manufacturing Factory”has
the similar characteristics
and rules
of naming
with“Individual Operator”,
the branches of foreign enterprises only
need to add phrases“City + Reps.
office (branch)”to its former company name.
Since May 2006,
Beijing Industry & Commerce
Administration Bureau has ordered
that“offices”are not permitted
to set up only if
it has changed to“branches”.
In addition,
the foreign investors
mostly accustomed to using“Super
Brand”company names like:
Asia,
Asia-Pacific,
International,
Development,
Exploring,
Group Company,
etc. Actually
these phrases have been restricted in
company naming,
hence no need trying to use these phrases.
Not only high demand for registered
capital,
but also approval from
Beijing“State Administration for
Industry and Commerce”.
