Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On April 25, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board
of Directors of Future FinTech Group, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed BF Borgers CPA PC (“BF Borgers”) as the Company’s
independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.
BF Borgers’ audit reports on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 did not contain an adverse
opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except
that the audit reports on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December
31, 2019 contained an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal
years and in the subsequent interim period through April 24, 2021, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and BF Borgers
on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements,
if not resolved to the satisfaction of BF Borgers, would have caused BF Borgers to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement
in their reports on the financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item
304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided BF Borgers with a copy of the
disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Report”) prior to the time the Report was filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company requested that BF Borgers furnish a letter addressed to the SEC
stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein as soon as possible. A copy of BF Borgers’ letter dated
April 29, 2021, is attached as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.
(b) Engagement of New Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm
On April 25, 2021, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the
Company approved the engagement of Onestop Assurance PAC (“Onestop Assurance”) as the Company’s independent registered
public accounting firm, effective immediately. The Audit Committee also approved Onestop Assurance to act as the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
During the Company’s two most recent fiscal
years and through April 24, 2021, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted Onestop Assurance regarding (i) the application
of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered
on the consolidated financial statements of the Company; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or a reportable
event as described above; and there was neither a written report nor was oral advice provided to the Company by Onestop Assurance that
was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to an accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue.
