UD brings together ICP filing, in-China hosting, cross-border acceleration, and traffic security, capabilities you would normally have to source separately, into a single, managed project.
One local project manager coordinates the entire delivery; all contracts, billing, and support run through UD Hong Kong.
Serve Mainland users directly, without the latency and compliance hurdles of an overseas setup.
UD delivers it as a single project, so there's no back-and-forth between multiple vendors.
A local team fluent in both regulatory regimes owns the project end-to-end, keeping the uncertainty within a single contract.
All contracts, invoices, and support handled centrally by UD Hong Kong.
Four building blocks for entering the China market: ICP filing, cross-border hosting, cross-border acceleration, and traffic security.
Any site hosted on a server inside Mainland China must obtain an ICP filing first. Unfiled in-China sites are blocked, and commercial operators face penalties of up to US$1.5 million.
All in-China services run under one UD contract, billed in HKD, with no separate contracts with Mainland vendors.
HK–China traffic is throttled by cross-border gateway congestion, with latency reaching 40–80ms and packet loss during peak hours.
UD delivers four layers of traffic security.
Global cloud providers typically contract through a Mainland or overseas entity, bill in RMB or USD, and offer support mainly through tickets. UD integrates in-China IDC, CN2 lines, CDN, and security under a single contract, backed by a Hong Kong team providing live support in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English, and we handle compliance work such as ICP filing that the global providers won't do for you.
An ICP filing requires the operating entity to be a Mainland-registered company; a company registered only in Hong Kong or overseas cannot apply directly. UD can introduce a Mainland accounting firm to set up a WFOE, which takes around 3–6 months. If time is tight, a "Hong Kong hosting + China CDN" combination gives Mainland users a near-local experience with no ICP required.
Yes. UD China CDN caches content on nodes that serve Mainland users, with no need to host the origin server inside the Mainland and no ICP filing required. Latency drops from a standard cross-border 40–80ms to under 50ms.
GIA (Global Internet Access) uses the 59.x.x.x route range, connecting directly to the CN2 backbone and staying low-latency even at peak. GT (Global Transit) still routes some traffic back through the 163 backbone, so peak performance drops, but it costs 30–50% less than GIA. UD configures GIA by default for enterprise clients.
Submit the form on this page or call UD customer service. A UD consultant runs a free 30–45 minute scoping session to map out your site architecture, target markets, traffic volumes, and existing tech stack, then provides a written proposal and a phased quote. From enquiry to go-live typically takes 2–6 weeks (excluding ICP filing wait times).
A UD China-solution consultant will be in touch shortly. Your first consultation is free, and your details are never used for anything else.
