Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Commerce issued the Catalogue of Industries Encouraging Foreign Investment (2019 edition), which came into effect on July 30, 2019.
From the content point of view, it includes two sub-catalogues: one is the national catalogue of industries that encourage foreign investment (the national catalogue), which is applicable to the whole country and is the policy of promoting foreign investment industries. Second, the catalogue of foreign-invested superior industries in the central and western regions (the catalogue of the central and Western regions), which is mainly applicable to the central and western regions and the Northeast regions, is a regional promotion policy for foreign investment.
In the 2019 edition, the catalogue encourages manufacturing industry to continue to be the key direction of encouraging foreign investment.
