Can shareholders use loans as their capital contribution to the company?
It's not a false contribution. China's "Company Law" does not restrict shareholders to contribute with their own funds. As long as the shareholders make full contributions in accordance with the articles of association, whether the shareholders' funds are their own funds, loans or other legal sources, they are in compliance with the law, and the borrowed funds are not false contributions. However, because the loan is made by individual shareholders, it should be repaid by shareholders, not by the company, otherwise it will infringe on the interests of other shareholders of the company, and persuading people will also be considered as an act of withdrawing capital contribution.
