To open a US stock account, just like buying and selling domestic A-shares, you can choose American online brokers, or you can buy and sell US stocks through Hong Kong financial institutions such as CMB International, BOC and HSBC, but the first category is more common, because the transaction cost of US stocks of Hong Kong brokers is two to three times that of American online brokers. Generally speaking, the US stock account is just a securities account, and you need an overseas bank account to transfer it into US dollars. It is enough to open various accounts according to regulations. Compared with the effort required for stock trading, this is not too much trouble.

The law allows China investors to buy American stocks. The same is true for buying shares of China companies listed in the United States.

The Measures for the Administration of Personal Foreign Exchange stipulates that "if the overseas direct investment of domestic individuals meets the relevant provisions, they can purchase foreign exchange or remit it in their own foreign exchange with the approval of the foreign exchange bureau, and go through the foreign exchange registration for domestic investment". However, at present, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, the Ministry of Commerce and other relevant departments only accept the approval of the company's foreign direct investment, and do not go through the formalities of individual foreign direct investment. In fact, there is no case in which an individual successfully registered his overseas foreign exchange investment with the SAFE in accordance with the Measures for the Administration of Personal Foreign Exchange.

It should be noted that in this process, we must abide by the national foreign exchange management system. In the process of buying foreign exchange from the bank, everyone's annual limit is 50 thousand dollars. After RMB cash is converted into foreign exchange, foreign exchange can be transferred to overseas bank accounts.
