How it's used
This term refers specifically to an office or small business that handles administrative tasks or applications on behalf of a client. It is often used for services like visa processing, insurance paperwork, or license renewals. Unlike a large consultancy firm, a 代辦所 usually implies a smaller, more focused operation that deals with bureaucratic procedures.
