Exhibit 99.3

Greenpro Capital Corp.

Compensation Committee Charter

Approved as of February 7, 2020

| I. | PURPOSE

The Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Greenpro Capital Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) through delegation from the Board, has principal responsibility to assist the Board with respect to compensation matters.

With respect to its compensation functions, the Committee’s purpose is to assist the Board with respect to compensation matters, including:

| ● | evaluating, recommending, approving and reviewing executive officer compensation arrangements, plans, policies and programs maintained by the Company;
| ● | administering the Company’s equity-based compensation plans and the Company’s annual bonus plan, whether adopted prior to or after the date of adoption of this charter (the “Charter”) (including issuance of stock options and other equity-based awards granted other than pursuant to a plan);
| ● | considering and making recommendations regarding non-employee director compensation; and
| ● | making recommendations to the Board regarding its remaining responsibilities relating to executive compensation.

This Charter sets forth the authority and responsibility of the Committee in fulfilling its purpose. Unless approval by the Committee is specifically required pursuant to this Charter or applicable law, the responsibility for overseeing and approving the Company’s compensation arrangements resides with the Company’s management. For the avoidance of doubt, any action that may or is to be taken by the Committee may, to the extent permitted by law or regulation, be taken directly by the Board in lieu of Committee action.

| II. | MEMBERSHIP

The Committee will consist of two or more members of the Board, with the exact number determined from time to time by the Board. Each member of the Committee will:

| ● | be an “independent director” as defined under the applicable rules, regulations and listing requirements of the stock exchange upon which the Company’s securities are listed for trading (the “Exchange Rules”), except as may otherwise be permitted by the Exchange Rules;
| ● | be free from any relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a Committee member; and

| ● | meet any other requirements imposed by applicable law, regulations or rules, including rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission Rules”), subject to any applicable exemptions and transition provisions.

All members of the Committee will be appointed by, and will serve at the discretion of, the Board. The members shall each serve until their respective terms as members of the Board shall expire, subject to earlier resignation or removal by the Board.

The Board may appoint a member of the Committee to serve as the chairperson of the Committee (the “Chair”); if the Board does not appoint a Chair, the Committee members may designate a Chair by their majority vote. The Chair will set the agenda for Committee meetings and conduct the proceedings of those meetings.

| III. | RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIES

The principal responsibilities and duties of the Committee in serving the purposes outlined in Section I of this Charter are set forth below. These duties are set forth as a guide, with the understanding that the Committee will carry them out in a manner that is appropriate given the Company’s needs and circumstances. The Committee may supplement them as appropriate and may establish policies and procedures from time to time that it deems necessary or advisable in fulfilling its responsibilities.

With respect to its compensation functions, the Committee will:

| 1. | Annually review the Company’s overall compensation strategy, including base salary, incentive compensation and equity-based grants, to assure that it promotes stockholder interests and supports the Company’s strategic and tactical objectives, and that it provides for appropriate rewards and incentives for the Company’s management and employees, taking into account whether such rewards and incentives encourage undue or inappropriate risk taking by such personnel.
| 2. | Annually review and approve the factors to be considered in determining the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) of the Company and the Company’s other “executive officers” as defined under Rule 3b-7 and “officers” as defined under Rule 16a-1(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) (collectively with the CEO, the “Executive Officers”), and evaluate the performance of the CEO and Executive Officers in light of these factors. Based on this evaluation, including an evaluation of the Company’s performance, the Committee will have the authority, subject to any approval by the Board which the Committee or legal counsel determines to be desirable or is required by applicable law, the Commission Rules or the Exchange Rules, to make decisions (including any formal approvals) respecting (i) salary paid to the CEO and other Executive Officers, (ii) the grant of all cash-based incentive compensation and equity-based compensation to the CEO and other Executive Officers, (iii) the entering into or amendment or extension of any offer letter, employment contract or similar arrangement with the CEO and other Executive Officers, (iv) the entering into or amendment or extension of any CEO or other Executive Officer severance or change in control arrangements, and (v) any other CEO or other Executive Officer compensation matters; provided that the Committee may take account of the recommendations of the Board (or other members of the Board) with respect to CEO and other Executive Officer compensation. The Committee may also make similar compensation related decisions with respect to other employees of the Company if Board or Committee approval is required or desirable as determined by legal counsel. The Committee may take account of the recommendations of the CEO or the Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) of the Company with respect to other Executive Officers for each of the foregoing items. Neither the CEO nor the CFO may be present during voting or deliberations regarding his or her own compensation.

| 3. | Annually review and approve (or make recommendations to the Board with respect to the approval of) all equity-based incentive compensation plans and the Company’s annual bonus plan, or any amendments thereto, and the aggregate cash amounts and numbers of shares to be paid or reserved for issuance thereunder after taking into consideration the Company’s strategies with respect to cash-based and equity-based compensation.
| 4. | Review and approve policies and procedures relating to perquisites and expense accounts of the CEO and other Executive Officers.
| 5. | Administer and interpret the Company’s cash-based and equity-based compensation plans and agreements thereunder, and in that capacity:

| ● | approve equity awards to officers, employees or other service providers to the Company;
| ● | amend equity plans (subject to stockholder approval when required) as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the Company’s compensation strategy;
| ● | determine whether awards that have performance-related criteria have been earned;
| ● | authorize the repurchase of shares from terminated employees pursuant to applicable law;

|  | Page 2 of 5

| ● | have the authority to correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any inconsistency in any equity compensation plan, award, exercise agreement or other arrangement;

| ● | administer any required or appropriate equity award timing policy.

| 6. | Meet with the CEO or CFO annually to discuss the incentive compensation programs to be in effect for the Executive Officers and other employees of the Company or any subsidiary for such fiscal year and the basis for evaluating the performance of the CEO, the other Executive Officers and employees thereunder.
| 7. | Recommend to the Board, for determination by the Board, the form and amount of cash-based and equity-based compensation to be paid or awarded to the Company’s non-employee directors, including compensation for service on the Board or on committees of the Board.
| 8. | Oversee the Company’s compliance with regulatory requirements associated with compensation of its directors, Executive Officers and other employees.
| 9. | Review with management the Company’s major compensation-related risk exposures and the steps management has taken, or should consider taking, to monitor or mitigate such exposures.
| 10. | Review and discuss the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and other compensation disclosure prepared in response to the requirements of Items 402(b) and (s) of Regulation S-K (or any successor disclosure items) if required pursuant to the Exchange Rules or the Commission Rules. Based on such review and discussion recommend to the Board whether such “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and other compensation disclosure should be included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, proxy statement, information statement, registrations statement or similar document. Prepare a report of the Committee on executive compensation to the Company’s stockholders for inclusion in the annual report or the proxy statement for the Company’s annual meeting in accordance with Item 407(e)(5) of Regulation S-K (or any successor disclosure item) so long as the Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and such disclosure is required pursuant to the Exchange Rules or the Commission Rules.
