Sumario: The history of trade relations between China and Spain dates back almost two thousand years to the Silk Road era. During the era of the Maritime Silk Road, the Spanish Muslims became the “window” through which Chinese civilization spread to Europe: the Chinese were the first to invent paper and gunpowder, as well as Chinese technologies. The Hispano-Christian world was strengthened during the Reconquest and, thanks to the Crown of Aragon, it was incorporated into Mediterranean and Atlantic trade, later expanding towards the eastern Mediterranean. Thus, commercial contact was established with important centers such as Alexandria and other cities. This expansion was a major driving force in the Mediterranean trade revolution of the 13th and 14th centuries, which contributed significantly to the increase in trade with the East. Following the age of the geographical discoveries, China and Spain became two of the most powerful empires in the world, one in the Orient and the other in the Occident. In this paper we will present and analyze the treaty signed between China and Spain on the subject of Maritime and Commercial Law during the end of the Qing dynasty (from the middle of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century) and the development of the maritime trade between the two countries, such as: The Spanish court policy for China during 16th century; The multilateral trade opening of the China-Philippines-Mexico-Spain Route; The trade on the Multilateral Route of China-Philippines-Mexico-Spain between the 16th and 19th century; The trade among China, Philippines and Spain during the 19th century, and the related historical documents.
