Some limited liability companies need to set up other business premises or institutions other than the main business premises, and may set up branches. The branch office is an inseparable part of the head office. It has no independent legal personality and independent property. Its assets belong to the head office, and its managers are all employed by the head office. They don't enjoy rights and assume responsibilities independently. When engaging in business activities, activities shall be carried out in the name of the head office. However, the branch is an important operating institution of a limited liability company. In order to facilitate the management of branches, the establishment of branches of a limited liability company should be registered in the company registration authority as an important matter and obtain a business license. There are two procedures for the establishment and registration of branches:
First, if a limited liability company is established and a branch company is established at the same time, the representative designated by all shareholders or the agent entrusted by all shareholders shall apply to the company registration authority to set up a branch company, go through the registration formalities and obtain a business license. Second, if a limited liability company establishes a branch after its establishment, its legal representative shall apply to the company registration authority for registration and obtain a business license. If the establishment of a branch involves matters that need to be approved according to laws and administrative regulations, it shall be approved according to law.
