Frequently asked questions
Can I register an account for a Hong Kong company?
The standard WB account scheme is designed for mainland Chinese companies with a 营业执照 and a Chinese bank account. Hong Kong companies work with Ozon Global (there are shipping points in Hong Kong for them); for WB, the standard path is a mainland legal entity.
How many accounts can I open for one company?
One account = one company is the standard practice. For multiple stores, separate legal entities are used: this is both a platform requirement and a way to mitigate risks. How to set up a structure with multiple firms — separate analysis.
Is the 10,000 ¥ deposit deducted or frozen?
It is frozen. This is a security deposit: it is returned when the account is closed. Only sales commissions and logistics costs are deducted — there is no subscription fee for the account.

Can I use a Hong Kong company to register on Wildberries?
