This revision is based on the 2023 edition of the Regulations of Shanghai Municipality on Optimizing Business Environment. The major changes are as follows:
1. A business entity can carry out business activities outside its registered domicile. In this case, the enterprise may decide on its own whether or not to apply for registration of another business entity in the same city;

2. Deepen the development of the whole-process integrated government service platform (“One-Stop Service Online”), promote the mechanism of integrated process of related matters, addressing defective matters upon commitment, coordinating services for across-region matters, and the precise assistance in policy matters. These approaches will enhance the standardization, normalization, and overall facilitation of government services.
