"I am very satisfied with the business creation and the opening of bank account in Hong Kong with the French Chamber. I was able to get valuable advice throughout the process; the effective communication and responsiveness most definitely enabled faster set up. I highly recommend you to use their service." Regis Ferrand, Marketing Socializer.

"When we did our research to create our branch, we were offered various proposals. Only the French Chamber presented us with clear steps and an offer that was good value for money.
