Company Information

  1. Naming a new company
    • Here is a general guideline about naming a Hong Kong company:
      • Check both the Chinese and English names at the Company Registry website and make sure it is not taken. We will also do a name search before submitting the documents to the government.
      • The name must be in English or Traditional Chinese or in both languages.
      • The name must end with the word "Limited".
      • The name must not have an offensive, illegal, or misleading meaning. It must not contain prohibited words such as "trust", "bank", etc.
      • The name must not be identical or similar to the name of another company or governmental agency.
      • If the name is opposed by other companies with similar names, the Company Registry may request the name to be changed.
  2. Nominal Value of each share
    • The recommended value is HKD $1.00 per share.
  3. Authorized Share Capital
    • Authorized Share Capital is the maximum amount of shares a company can legally issue.
    • The recommended value is HKD $10,000.00.
    • If the Authorized Share Capital of the company is set over HKD $10,000.00, then there is an extra HKD $1.00 governmental fee for every HKD $1,000.00 additional capital.
  4. Business Information (optional)
    • If the name, address, etc, used in business are different from that of the company registration, then you must enter the information here. The business information includes fictious name and store location.
  5. Witness Information (required)
    • A witness is required to witness the signing of the Memorandum and Article of Association (M&A) by the share holders. The witness also needs to sign the M&A in order to make the M&A effective. The witness can be anyone except the directors and the share holders of the company. He can be your friend or relative.
