How to register your company in Hong Kong as a foreigner

icon business

Determine Your Company Structure

For foreigners, the most common and flexible business type is a Private Company Limited by Shares. You’re required to have at least one director, who can be of any nationality and does not need to live in Hong Kong.

icon business

Choose and Register Your Company Name

Your company name must be unique and approved by the Hong Kong Companies Registry. You can check the availability of your proposed name online from anywhere in the world before submitting your official application.

icon business

Appoint Directors and Shareholders

Directors and shareholders can be of any nationality and reside anywhere. As a foreigner, you can be the sole director and sole shareholder of your company. You will need to provide identification documents like a passport and proof of overseas address.

icon business

Obtain a Hong Kong Registered Address

According to the Companies Ordinance, every company must have a physical registered address in Hong Kong for official communications from the government. This cannot be a P.O. Box. Foreign entrepreneurs typically use a service provider to secure a compliant local address.

icon business

Appoint a Hong Kong Company Secretary

It is a legal requirement to appoint a company secretary who is either a Hong Kong resident or a corporate body with a registered office in Hong Kong. This is a mandatory role that ensures your company’s compliance, and service providers are typically hired by foreigners to fulfill this requirement.

icon business

File for Incorporation and Business Registration

Once all details are confirmed, the incorporation application is filed with the Companies Registry. Simultaneously, an application for a Business Registration Certificate is made to the Inland Revenue Department. Once both are approved, your company is officially registered and ready to operate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be a resident of Hong Kong to register a company?

No. You do not need to be a resident of Hong Kong to incorporate a company. Directors and shareholders can be of any nationality and reside anywhere in the world.

Are there any restrictions on the nationality of directors or shareholders?

No. Hong Kong is very open to foreign investment. There are no restrictions on the nationality of company directors or shareholders. A company can be 100% foreign-owned.

Do I need to travel to Hong Kong to incorporate my company?

No. The entire company incorporation process can be handled 100% remotely. By using a corporate services provider like Sleek, you can complete all the necessary steps and submit all documents online from your home country without ever needing to visit Hong Kong.

What are the minimum requirements for a foreigner to register a company?

To register a Private Company Limited by Shares, the most common type, you need:

  • At least one director (can be a non-resident of any nationality).
  • At least one shareholder (can be the same person as the director).
  • A local Hong Kong registered office address (cannot be a P.O. Box).
  • A local Hong Kong Company Secretary (must be a Hong Kong resident or a licensed Hong Kong corporation).

What is a Company Secretary and why must they be local?

A Company Secretary is a mandatory officer of the company responsible for ensuring it complies with all statutory and administrative requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. The law explicitly requires this role to be filled by a Hong Kong resident or a Hong Kong-based corporate body. For this reason, all foreign-owned companies must hire a local professional service provider to act as their Company Secretary.

Can a foreigner open a corporate bank account in Hong Kong?

Yes, it is possible, but it has become more challenging due to strict international anti-money laundering regulations. Banks require a thorough Know Your Customer (KYC) process. While some banks may require an in-person visit, many service providers have partnerships that can facilitate the process, and some banks are offering remote account opening options. A solid business plan and proper documentation are essential.

What documents do I need to provide as a foreigner?

Typically, you will need to provide the following for all non-resident directors and shareholders:

  • A clear, scanned copy of your passport.
  • A proof of your overseas residential address (e.g., a recent utility bill or bank statement dated within the last 3 months).
