China is together with the USA, the most important export market for German products outside of Europe. Furthermore, Germany is by far China’s most important trade partner in Europe. As a German-speaking company, you can reap the benefits of this important partnership through our German Desk.

The German Desk’s multicultural team comprises German native speakers as well as trilingual professionals fully able to handle German speaking companies’ issues thanks to their cross-border experience, highly developed skills and dual qualifications in German-Hong Kong or German-Chinese accounting and regulatory requirements.
