杨春宝一级律师简介
常见法律问题
现有外商投资企业是否必须立即变更公司治理结构以符合新法要求？
现有外商投资企业享有五年过渡期，无需立即变更治理结构。根据外商投资法第四十二条及实施条例第二十六条，设立于实施前的外商投资企业可在五年过渡期内（2020年1月1日至2025年1月1日）按原法律形式存续，但建议尽早启动章程修订、股东会决议等合规整改工作，避免过渡期届满面临登记障碍。
外商投资法实施后，原有合资合同、合作合同是否自动失效需要重签？
原有合同不自动失效，在过渡期内继续有效。依据外商投资法第四十二条第二款，原批准设立的外商投资企业合同、章程与新法冲突的，以新法为准，但企业可在过渡期内按原合同履行。建议梳理合同条款与公司法、外商投资法强制性规定的冲突点，分批次通过补充协议或修订章程方式实现合规衔接。
上海地区外商投资企业需重点关注哪些地方性合规新要求？
上海市决定明确了备案制改革、国民待遇前置管理等本地化举措。根据《上海市实施决定》第七条、第十二条，外商投资企业设立、变更实行备案管理，涉及准入特别管理措施的仍需审批；同时强化知识产权保护、技术转让自愿原则监管。建议委托专业律师开展专项合规体检，重点排查股权架构穿透、实际控制人识别、技术许可条款等高风险领域。
