Shandong, in collaboration with seven other provinces and autonomous regions along the Yellow River—including Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, and Henan—has introduced a plan to officially implement the mutual recognition of foreign investor qualification certificates across the eight provincial regions starting July 1, 2026, achieving "certification in one location, valid in eight provinces". This policy applies to scenarios such as reinvestment, equity changes, and equity pledge registration for foreign-invested enterprises within the region. It establishes three sets of application rules, including document validity periods and scope of application, while defining five negative lists to strengthen risk management. The policy creates a closed-loop management system featuring "self-application, credit verification, mutual recognition, and ex-post supervision", significantly streamlining foreign investment registration procedures, reducing institutional transaction costs, and continuously optimizing the business environment for foreign investment in the Yellow River Basin.
