After 8 years
Hong Kong is about to restart investment immigration!
As soon as the news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of global investors, especially for those investors who want to enter the Hong Kong market, it will be a very rare opportunity
01
Restart Hong Kong Investment Immigration Program
On the morning of February 22, Chen Maobo, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, said:
In order to attract and accommodate talents and capital, the Hong Kong government will soon launch the Hong Kong Capital Entrant Scheme (referred to as the "Hong Kong Investment Immigration Scheme").
Applicants must invest a certain amount of assets in the local market, excluding property investment. After approval, they can come to live and develop in Hong Kong.
According to relevant sources, the investment may be 30 million Hong Kong dollars.
About the Investment Immigration Program
In 2003, the Hong Kong government launched the "Capital Investor Entry Scheme" for the first time;
In 2010, the relevant investment amount was increased to 10 million yuan;
In 2015, the program was closed.
It is reported that the restarted Hong Kong investment immigration program is carried out under the new policy framework.
In order to attract more overseas investors, the Hong Kong government will relax the application conditions and speed up the approval process.
In addition, the Hong Kong government will increase support for investors and provide them with more convenience and preferential treatment to encourage them to invest in Hong Kong.
02
Introduce company re-domiciliation mechanism
In addition to restarting the investment immigration program, the Hong Kong government will also introduce a company re-domiciliation mechanism.
Chen Maobo said that Hong Kong has the competitive advantage of being a concentration of multinational companies and a headquarters economy, so in order to further seize market opportunities, a company re-domiciliation mechanism will be introduced to facilitate companies registered in other places.
In particular, companies whose business is centered in the Asia-Pacific region have moved their registration to Hong Kong to make good use of Hong Kong's excellent business conditions and professional services.
03
Update Talent List
In terms of gathering talents:
Chen Maobo said that the Labor and Welfare Bureau is updating the "13 talent list" to reflect the manpower needs of various professions, and it is expected to be completed next month.
The Labor and Welfare Bureau will also launch a new round of manpower resource projections in the middle of this year to assist the government in formulating appropriate strategies for overall manpower needs.
The terms of the new investment immigration program have not yet been announced, and it is believed that the Hong Kong government will issue detailed rules as soon as possible.
Hong Kong is unstoppable. It needs both "talent" and "wealth". In the future, it will definitely be able to ride the wind and return to the C position on the world stage!
