Setting up business in Hong Kong

Overseas entrepreneurs, small and medium-sized enterprises and multinationals, who are considering to set up an office or expand their existing business in Hong Kong, are welcome to approach InvestHK — a government department which offers free advice and services to support companies from the planning stage right through to the launch and expansion of their business.

Here you can learn the most common forms of business vehicles that foreign investors can choose, including private listed companies, branch offices of overseas companies, rep office, partnerships or sole proprietorships and joint ventures.

The Government has established the Office for Attracting Strategic Enterprises (OASES) since December 2022 for attracting strategic enterprises from the Mainland and overseas by offering them special facilitation measures and one‑stop services. For more details of OASES, please click here.
