B.A.T. CHINA LIMITED
B.A.T. CHINA LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 00134409, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 6 March 1914 and lists its registered address as LONDON, United Kingdom. 2 shareholders are on record for B.A.T. CHINA LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 22 September 2026.
