Dear Mr. Wilson:
We refer to a letter from the Division of Corporation Finance (the Staff) of the Securities and Exchange Commission to Dr. Charles Zhang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of our client Sohu.com Inc. (Sohu), dated September 14, 2016 (the Comment Letter), regarding Sohus Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed on February 26, 2016 and Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on August 2, 2016.
On Sohus behalf, we advise the Staff that Sohu expects to be in a position to respond to the Comment Letter by Monday, October 3, 2016. This delay beyond the timeframe initially requested by the Staff is necessitated by the closing of Sohus principal offices on Thursday, September 15 and Friday, September 16, 2016 for the Chinese Moon Festival holiday, during which days, and continuing through the weekend, Sohus key business, legal, and finance personnel were not available to work on responses to the Comment Letter.
