Item 4.01

Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

(a)

Resignation of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On August 27, 2026, Montis CPA Limited (“Montis”) notified

the audit committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of IT Tech Packaging, Inc.

(the “Company”) of its resignation as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

The Company engaged Montis on April 22, 2026, with the approval of

the Audit Committee, to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Montis

did not issue any audit report on the Company’s financial statements during the period from April 22, 2026 (the date of engagement)

through August 27, 2026 (the date of resignation). Accordingly, there were no audit reports issued by Montis on the Company’s financial

statements for either of the two most recent fiscal years or any subsequent interim period preceding Montis’s resignation that contained

an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or were qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During the period from April 22, 2026 through August 27, 2026, a disagreement

(as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) arose between the Company’s management and Montis concerning the accounting

treatment, disclosure, and nature of a US$1,050,000 loan to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The disagreement was not resolved

to Montis’s satisfaction, and therefore Montis discontinued the engagement and resigned. The Audit Committee discussed the subject

matter of the disagreement with Montis on August 18, 2026, and stated that the US$1,050,000 was a payment for the purchase of equipment.

Except for the matter described above, during the Company’s two

most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and any subsequent interim period preceding Montis’s resignation, there were no

other disagreements between the Company and Montis on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure,

or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Montis’s satisfaction, would have caused Montis to make reference to the

subject matter of any such disagreement in its report on the Company’s financial statements.

During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent

interim period preceding Montis’s resignation, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of

Regulation S-K).

The Company has authorized that Montis respond fully to the inquiries

of HCL (as defined below), the successor accountant, if any, concerning the subject matter of the disagreement described above.

The Company has provided Montis with a copy of the disclosures contained

in this Current Report on Form 8-K and has requested that Montis furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange

Commission stating whether or not Montis agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of Montis’s letter, dated September 1, 2026,

is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

(b) Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On August 29, 2026, the Company engaged HCL, PLLC (“HCL”)

to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. The decision to engage HCL as the

Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company on August 29, 2026.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years, and any subsequent

interim period prior to engaging HCL, the Company did not consult with HCL regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a

specific completed or proposed transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial

statements and no written or oral advice was provided by HCL that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision

as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement or event

as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) or Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
