On Sunday, January 1 China’s new law governing foreign NGOs in China went into effect. The good folks at China Development Brief have put together a helpful infographic covering the basic information about the law. Some of the dates on the infographic reflect information as of mid-December; however, the information it conveys is still extremely useful. We are re-posting it here with their permission.










Since the preparation phase is now behind us, foreign NGOs in China that have not yet sought approval from a professional supervisory unit run the risk of already being in violation of the law.
