On the punishment of the company's establishment of branches without registration.

First of all, the nature of the branch: the head office applies to the local industrial and commercial department for establishment outside its domicile, which belongs to the company's branch and needs to go through industrial and commercial registration.

Secondly, according to Article 2 1 1 of the Company Law and Article 80 of the Regulations on the Administration of Company Registration, "fraudulently using the name of a branch of a limited liability company or a joint stock limited company" refers to fraudulently using the name of a branch without being registered as a branch of a limited liability company or a joint stock limited company according to law, including operating in the name of a branch without obtaining any business license, and also obtaining a business license of a branch according to law.

To sum up, registration and fraudulent use are related, and non-registration will inevitably lead to fraudulent use, so registration should be considered more reasonable.

Third, according to Article 211 of the Company Law: "Anyone who uses the name of a limited liability company or a joint stock limited company without registration according to law, or uses the name of a branch of a limited liability company or a joint stock limited company without registration according to law, shall be ordered by the company registration authority to make corrections or be banned, and may be fined not more than 100,000 yuan."

Article 80 of the Regulations on the Administration of Company Registration: "Anyone who uses the name of a limited liability company or a joint stock limited company without registration according to law, or uses the name of a limited liability company or a joint stock limited company without registration according to law, shall be ordered by the company registration authority to make corrections or be banned, and may be fined up to 654.38 million yuan."

Because the regulations are the detailed rules for the implementation of the company law, the penalties are basically the same.
