Supplier Red Flags Before a Wire Transfer to China

Many overseas buyers only verify a supplier after something feels wrong. A better process is to check the company before a wire transfer or deposit.

High-priority red flags

Watch for a company name that differs from the bank beneficiary, a recently changed legal representative, abnormal registration status, vague business scope, or pressure to pay quickly.

Use evidence snapshots
