Can intellectual property contribute?

Legal analysis: intellectual property rights can be funded. From the perspective of registration, the examination and approval of intellectual property investment generally focuses on four aspects, that is, the intellectual property used for investment should have the characteristics of certainty, existence, evaluation and transferability.

Legal basis: Article 27 of the Company Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), shareholders can make capital contributions in cash or in kind, intellectual property rights, land use rights and other non-monetary properties that can be valued in money and transferred according to law. However, except for the property that cannot be used as capital contribution as stipulated by laws and administrative regulations.

Non-monetary property as capital contribution shall be evaluated and verified, and its value shall not be overestimated or underestimated. Where there are provisions in laws and administrative regulations on evaluation and pricing, those provisions shall prevail.
