Answer:

Generally, the following documents are required:

• Articles of Incorporation
• Statement of Information (public information from the California Secretary of State)
• Certificate of Good Standing
• Bank Statement
• CEO's Passport
• Power of Attorney

These relevant documents can be provided for the application.

Before proceeding, please verify the required documents with the relevant domestic authorities. Regulations for the same matter can vary significantly across different regions in China. It is advisable to clarify through relatives or friends in China which documents are needed, which require consular authentication, which do not, and the required number of copies for each document.
