Alibaba Cloud China Connect is a service that can help international companies do business in China by providing them with the necessary infrastructure, compliance, and ecosystem support1. China Connect includes the following services1:
ICP Support: Alibaba Cloud helps you obtain the Internet Content Provider (ICP) license, which is required for any website hosted in mainland China.
Office registration support: Alibaba Cloud helps you register a legal entity in mainland China, which is required for some business scenarios such as e-commerce, online payment, and social media.
Connect your service with Alibaba Group ecosystem: Alibaba Cloud helps you leverage the Alibaba Group ecosystem, which includes platforms such as Taobao, Tmall, Alipay, and DingTalk, to reach millions of potential customers and partners in China.
However, China Connect does not include web hosting, which is a service that allows you to store and deliver your website content on Alibaba Cloud servers. Web hosting is a separate service that you can purchase from Alibaba Cloud, and it is not part of China Connect.
