The One-stop Company and Business Registration Service is a service jointly provided by the Companies Registry and the Inland Revenue Department. Any person who applies for incorporation of a local company or registration of a non-Hong Kong company under the Companies Ordinance will be deemed to have made a simultaneous application for business registration. Upon approval of an application for company incorporation or registration, the Companies Registry will issue the Certificate of Incorporation / Registration and the Business Registration Certificate in one go. Further information of the One-stop Service can be obtained from the FAQ on the website of the Inland Revenue Department.
