Episode 101 Global From Asia, thanks for being here with me today! Making the intro today during my last few days on my USA trip. Extremely exhausting to cover Cali, New York, Connecticut, and Florida in less than 3 weeks with a 1 year old and a pregnant wife, do not advise others to attempt this!

Thanks Dan for coming on and sharing so openly. I appreciate everyone who comes on the show, but especially legal advice is hard to get! So please check out his blog at China Law Blog, and reach out to him if you need any legal services for the Chinese market and other international markets.
K, well by the time this show is online I’ll be back in Asia! Thanks Rex Redstone and Alan Budhu for hosting me at their homes while I was in the states – Rex in SF, and Alan in NJ. Much appreciated and very accommodating!
So excited, and I am preparing to get to DCBKK conference in mid October – been getting introduced and connected to more and more amazing internet entrepreneurs and business owners, if you happen to be in Bangkok for the conference, please reach out!
Hosting a meetup there too on Thursday Oct 15 in the late afternoon for conference attendees on Hong Kong business best practices, would be cool to see some podcast listeners there!
cheers!

Superb advice, thank you! Do you have any further advice about how to deal with the VAT in China once a distributor is assigned? We are a British company, whose products are manufactured in China and we have an interested distributor who would like to sell into the Chinese market. As we’re not VAT registered, so how will this affect them, our supplier, and us if we sell products to them on a domestic level? Must we pay our supplier VAT, but not apply VAT to our distributor’s invoice? This seems to be a minefield!
