1. Why AsianPromise?

Please refer to our page:  Why AsianPromise?

2. Are you IMBRA compliant? - "The International Marriage Broker Regulation Act"

Yes. Asian Promise is a New Zealand company (it moved to Australia in 2007) which helps Asian ladies to find love and happiness internationally and its principal business is not to provide dating services between United States citizens and other individuals.

We support IMBRA in the nature of our business. We do not sell wives and husbands, we help people by offering Asian Promise as a platform for them to meet themselves and  by offering them supporting information to achieve happiness themselves. If you want a "mail order bride", then Asian Promise is not the right service for you.

1. Why are your ladies special?

Please refer to our page: Why are Our Ladies Special?

2. Do you actually meet and interview your women all in person?

We do not meet and interview every member of Asian Promise, but we do go to China to have "members' meetings" from time to time. Please see our page: Meetings. We have annual meetings in Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen and other major cities. Through these meetings, we answer questions, gain trust and become friends with our members. Apart from these meetings, we also have very close contact with our members at all times by email and telephone. Just like you, they share with us their concerns and seek help from us by mail and telephone.

Therefore unlike other many dating websites, we know our members very well. However as with building any relationship, those involved should take time to get to know each other to be sure that you are both sincere to make a lifelong commitment. 

3. Do your ladies all write or speak English and can they contact me directly?

Most of our ladies can, with varying skills, write or speak English. Since good Communication is crucial for a happy relationship, we encourage all our ladies to learn and improve their English by talking to you directly. If the lady is not willing to learn English and wants to depend on a translator or agent, we don't welcome her to join AsianPromise.  We guarantee that more than 95% of our ladies can contact you directly. We have published her English level on her profile for your reference. The most important thing after all is her attitude to English learning, not her current English level. 

4. Some of your ladies' profiles have been there for one year, are they still valid?

Our lady membership lasts for one year or six months. If she wants to continue her membership with Asian Promise after her membership expired, she needs to pay to rejoin. During her membership with Asian Promise, she can update her profile, turn off or on her profile and contact us at any time. Therefore all  Our Ladies profiles are valid and up to date.

Since all our ladies are looking for a true love and a long term relationship, which needs effort and time as we all know, it is quite usual to see some of our ladies who have been on Asian Promise for one year or even longer than one year.

2. How do you ensure your service and members are good without charging?

Unlike most other websites offering free membership to ladies, we charge a membership fee from ladies to run our service. We offer our ladies a quality service by offering them sincere men who are looking for love and marriage, and offering them good ways to find true love. Dawn Xiao Yan, the co-owner of AsianPromise, has written Three books for our ladies. Our ladies understand that in most cases men will have to make financial effort to meet them in person later on (safety and reality) and finding true love need efforts from both sides.

1. Why do these ladies want to find a foreign love?

Please refer to our page: Chinese Women.

2. How can I protect myself from being cheated?

Please refer to our page: Precautions

3. How do I choose between ladies?

We understand your concerns very much. Most of the time our men start with more than one lady. After 2-3 months of corresponding, you should work out which ones you would like to meet. The relationship should be confirmed after you meet them in person and you should stop contacting others for marriage purposes after then (we prefer to publish a photo of you and your lover on our website in order to increase the transparency among our customers, see Our Lovers ).  If you decide to start with more than one lady, we suggest you to tell her the truth. Our ladies would understand this and in fact most of time they do the same things as you do.

4. I want to call my lady by telephone. What is the time difference?

Unfortunately this is going to vary depending on which country you are calling from and any seasonal adjustments that exist there. Most telephone directories will list the time difference for you. It is worth noting, however, that is no time difference across China and Hong Kong and no seasonal adjustments. Use the following as a rough guide

UK           Call at lunchtime and it is evening in China (+7-8 hours difference)

USA         Call in the evening and it is daytime in China (+13 to 18 hours difference)

Australia  Call during the evening and it is daytime in China (0 to -3 hours difference)

5. Is the postal service in China reliable and secure? How long it will take?

The postal service in China is reasonably reliable, although as always it is unwise to send items of value in the post without using compensation paid or registered post. An alternative in large cities is to use a service like UPS. Allow a week for Airmail, maybe longer to rural parts of China.

6. Do I need to visit the lady in China or can she join me here?

From our experience, most men go to China to see their lady after first corresponding with each other by email or phone for at least 2-3 months. By doing this, the man not only shows his sincerity, but also gets the real feeling of being together. It is usually easier for men from overseas to travel to China than for Chinese ladies to travel overseas because of visa problems. In addition, most Chinese ladies still enjoy traditional dating. They like a man to chase her to prove his interest.

In this case we also think you need to consider the lady's view point. You are asking her to give up her job, home, family, culture and food to travel to a foreign country to live with someone she has only met by email. It a big risk. And how does she know she will get on with you and will have some financial security in the new place? 

7. How can I get married to her?

Please refer to our page: Getting Married

8. Can you give me more advice on culture & dating, e.g. communication, sex, money...?

Please read our book Chinese Women in Love and Marriage - A Guide to Happiness in Cross-Cultural Relationships to get all these answers and build up your confidence to find Chinese love. Some of the contents have been published at our page: Communication, Chinese Women Asian Dating Tips.

Although we strongly recommend men to read the book Chinese Women in Love and Marriage, we do understand people need individual help, Please go to page Our Service to refer to "Cross-Cultural Consultancy Service".
