Dear Sir and Madam:

 

On behalf of Wetouch Technology Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), we hereby file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an amended Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Amended S-1”) in response to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”), dated April 3, 2023, with reference to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Commission on March 21, 2023.

 

For the convenience of the Staff, each of the Staff’s comments is included and is followed by the corresponding response of the Company.

 

Registration Statement on Form S-1

 

Cover Page

 

1.Disclose whether your offering is contingent upon on final approval of your NASDAQ listing. Please ensure the disclosure is consistent with your underwriting agreement.

 

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised the disclosure on the cover page and page 4 to state that the offering is contingent on the final approval of its NASDAQ listing. In addition, the form of underwriting agreement filed with the Amended S-1 contains a representation and warranty (Section 2.2) by the Company and a condition precedent to the underwriters’ obligations (Section 4.1.3) that provides that the Company’s common stock shall have been approved for listing on the NASDAQ exchange as of the date of pricing and/or closing, which is consistent with the disclosure in the Amended S-1.

 

 
 

 

 

2.Please disclose the location of your auditor’s headquarters.
