Verify a Chinese supplier before you send money
Check a supplier before you pay a deposit. We review Chinese business records, legal history, customs data, certificates, online presence, and factory visit options. One flat fee. Clear English report.
One Unverified Supplier Can Cost You Thousands
- Fake business licenses registered to empty addresses are easy to make
- Many companies call themselves a factory but have no production line
- ISO and CE certificates can be bought online for pocket change
- Export records rarely match what a supplier tells you on a call
Many sourcing agents skip this step because they earn money when you buy. We do not sell products. We check the supplier first, then show you the risks before you send a deposit.
Three Steps From Question to Answer
You Send a Name
Just the supplier name or their website. We locate their official registration immediately.
We Check the Records
We review registry data, legal records, customs signals, certificates, and online footprint using Chinese-language sources.
You Get the Report
A clean PDF in your inbox within 1 to 2 business days. It includes a risk summary and plain-English conclusion.
Why Buyers Use CSP
This is not a generic lookup. CSP is based in Hangzhou and works with Chinese suppliers, export papers, factory records, and bilingual sourcing messages every week.
China-Based Checks
We read Chinese company records, platform claims, certificate details, and supplier signals that overseas buyers may miss.
Independent Position
We do not earn money from the supplier you are checking. The report is written for the buyer, with risks stated clearly.
Built for Real Orders
We look beyond company status. We flag related companies, export activity, certificate gaps, and whether a factory visit is realistic.
What We Check Before You Pay
Eight checks. Each one answers a simple question: is this supplier real, active, and safe enough to pay?
