The Regulations cover the control of foreign exchange on the current account and capital account.

Amendments to China's Regulations for the Administration of Foreign-invested Telecommunications Enterprises came into effect in September 2008. The amendments lower capitalisation thresholds for the operation of basic services and make applications simpler.
