Overseas investors will get greater access China’s restricted industries

China’s state regulator and planning council unveiled a revised “negative list” on April 24, 2025, reducing restricted industries for foreign investors from 117 to 106. This update, effective from 2018, aims to ease market entry amid U.S. tariff pressures and domestic economic challenges, including weak consumption and a property sector debt crisis.

The 2025 list partially liberalizes sectors like television production, telecommunications, online pharmaceutical services, and forest seed imports. Local governments are encouraged to expand access in transportation, logistics, and vehicle rentals. However, investments in unmanned aerial vehicles and new tobacco products like e-cigarettes remain restricted for safety reasons.
