Thinking about expanding from China to United States?
Selling software from China into the United States requires overcoming trust barriers and ensuring full compliance with US data-privacy and security standards. US enterprises expect American English interfaces, documentation, and training materials, and they will scrutinize your CCPA compliance and require SOC 2 or FedRAMP certification. You’ll need to demonstrate seamless integration with US enterprise stacks like Salesforce or Azure, and bolster your credibility with US-based case studies or pilot deployments under American regulatory conditions.
Your export approach should balance direct SaaS subscriptions with partnerships through US value-added resellers or managed-service providers—each demanding customized enablement kits and margin agreements tailored to the US channel. China-based support teams must adapt to cover multiple US time zones, provide SLAs in line with American expectations, and manage state-level sales tax registrations as nexus rules apply. Net-30 invoicing cycles and purchase-order processes introduce further financial and administrative overhead. Without a US presence or a local technical liaison, Chinese software firms often face cultural, regulatory, and operational barriers that slow their US market entry.
