China uses the Unified Social Credit Code (统一社会信用代码, USCC) as the primary business identifier for all companies and organizations. This 18-character alphanumeric code was implemented to standardize and consolidate various registration numbers across different government departments. Expected Identifier Format:
  • Code Type: Unified Social Credit Code
  • Format: 18 alphanumeric characters
  • Example: 91110000710926094P
