Why Do I Need Company Secretarial Services in Hong Kong?
Companies have to comply with statutory obligations under the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance to have a company secretary. Moreover, your company secretary must be over the age of 18, and they must be someone other than the sole director. But most importantly, your company secretary must also either reside in Hong Kong or they must be a corporate body having its office registered in Hong Kong with the TCSP license.

FAQs for Company Secretarial Services in Hong Kong
1. CAN I JUST TAKE THE ROLE OF SECRETARY MYSELF?
If you are a sole director, it is actually illegal for you to be the secretary as well. Hong Kong law mandates that the secretary is over the age of 18, and ordinarily resides in HK.
2. CAN I GIVE THE ROLE OF SECRETARY TO ONE OF MY EMPLOYEES?
If your employees live in Hong Kong and are over the age of 18, then yes.
But we recommend making sure that they have previous company secretarial experience and TCSP License in Hong Kong.
This is because the company secretarial role is actually quite important as they have to deal with government regulatory bodies (such as the Companies Registry).
If you hire or appoint a secretary who is inexperienced with Hong Kong corporate secretarial work, you risk being out of compliance with Hong Kong regulations.
