Company identity checks
Review the registered entity, business scope, address, legal representative and consistency of commercial documents.

China supplier verification
Direct answer
Chinese supplier verification checks whether the company exists, whether its identity and payment details are consistent, and whether its claimed capability fits the order. It reduces risk but does not replace a sample, contract, production follow-up or quality inspection.
What Mijay Group handles
Payment consistency
Compare beneficiary details with the contracting entity and investigate unexplained last-minute changes before payment.
Capability review
Assess whether product knowledge, equipment, capacity, certificates and export claims are coherent with the project.
How the project works
1. Collect supplier records
Gather registration details, quotation, invoice, bank information, certificates, address and named contacts.
2. Cross-check identity
Compare official registration data with the documents, website, email domain, contract and payment beneficiary.
3. Review commercial coherence
Check whether MOQ, pricing, technical answers, lead times and claimed experience make sense for the product.
4. Escalate to an audit when needed
Use an on-site audit for higher-value, technically complex or suspicious cases where documents cannot prove capability.
5. Keep controls during the order
Use approved specifications, milestones, inspection and controlled payments even after verification.
What you need to know before you start
Verification is a risk screen, not a guarantee
A valid registration proves that an entity exists; it does not guarantee future product quality, delivery or financial performance.
Certificates must match the entity and product
Check the holder, issuing body, scope, dates, model numbers and whether the document is actually required for the destination.
Urgency is a common risk signal
Pressure to pay quickly, unexpected beneficiary changes or refusal to provide basic documents should trigger additional checks.
Frequently asked questions
How do I verify a supplier in China?
Cross-check the registered company, business scope, address, contacts, certificates, quotation, contract and bank beneficiary. For important orders, add sample approval, references or an on-site audit.
Does a Chinese business licence prove the supplier is a factory?
No. It confirms registered information, but factory status and production capability require additional evidence such as scope, facility, equipment, staff and on-site verification.
Can supplier verification prevent every scam?
No verification can guarantee every future action. It reduces avoidable risk and helps define stronger payment, sample, inspection and contract controls.
