Of course, before searching, you need to get the electronic version of the business license from the Chinese company.

After obtaining the name of the Chinese company, compare it with the signature on the contract to confirm if it is the same company. In the future, if a dispute arises between the two parties over the performance of the contract, the company with the signature can be legally identified as the subject of legal action, and the foreign business entity can file a lawsuit or arbitration against the Chinese company.
