Dear Mr. Field:

 

This letter is in response to the letter dated April 29, 2022, from the staff (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) addressed to Golden Sun Education Group Limited (the “Company”, “we”, or “our”). For ease of reference, we have recited the Commission’s comments in this response and numbered them accordingly. An amendment to the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Amendment”) is being filed to accompany this letter.

 

Amendment No. 6 to Registration Statement on Form F-1

 

Prospectus Cover Page

 

1.Please revise the 4th paragraph to acknowledge that Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow your corporate structure, which would likely result in a material change in your operations and/or a material change in the value of the securities you are registering for sale, including that it could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.

 

Response: We acknowledge Staff’s comment and revised the 4th paragraph on the cover page of the prospectus to acknowledge that Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow our corporate structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or a material change in the value of the securities we are registering for sale, including that it could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
