Our China business directory currently lists 82M+ verified businesses across China. The number is updated continuously as new entities register and inactive ones are removed.
We deliver Chinese business data through four channels to fit your workflow: REST API for automated pipelines, tailored Excel mailing lists for targeted outreach, high-volume bulk packages for global data buyers, and the Bold Platform for self-serve, on-demand list-building. Tell us your target audience and we'll match the right channel.
Yes — searching business names and previewing basic registration data is free. Full records (with email, phone, financials, and 50+ fields per legal entity) require either a platform subscription, a custom Excel export, or API access.
Records are sourced from official China business registries, tax authorities and trade registers, then enriched with global business intelligence partners. Every Chinese business registry record is cross-checked against multiple sources to ensure accuracy on legal name, registration ID, address, and industry classification.
We deliver monthly updates of the China dataset against the official registry feeds, with continuous enrichment from web sources between updates.
Where available: yes. Every record carries the registration ID, legal status, address, and industry classification. Larger entities also include revenue, employee count, executive contacts, and financial indicators.
