Hong Kong company registration process is relatively simpler than that of mainland China. The Companies Registry (“the Registry”) administers and enforces most parts of the Companies Ordinance. The Registry registers local and non-Hong Kong companies and statutory returns, de-registers defunct solvent companies and provides the public with services and facilities for inspecting and obtaining company information kept by the Registry.
It is pretty straight forward. For each shareholder of the company you will need to have ready:
(a) Form NN1 - Application for Registration as Registered Non-Hong Kong Company;
(b) a certified copy of the instrument defining the company's constitution e.g. charter, statutes or memorandum and articles of association;
(c) a certified copy of the company's certificate of incorporation (or its equivalent);
(d) a certified copy of the company's latest published accounts; and
(e) a Notice to Business Registration Office (IRBR2).
