In view of the latest epidemic situation and the special work arrangements for government employees, the Companies Registry announced today (December 1) that it will provide limited public services with effect from tomorrow (December 2) until further notice.
 
The Registry will provide limited counter services every working day for receiving documents delivered in hard copy and collection of certificates for company incorporations. The Public Search Centre will be opened on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
 
The limited opening hours of the Registry will be as follows starting from tomorrow:
 
14/F Public Service Hall at Queensway Government Offices and 12/F, One Kowloon, Kowloon Bay
 
Monday to Friday
9.30am to 4pm
 
13/F Public Search Centre at Queensway Government Offices
 
Monday, Wednesday and Friday

To achieve social distancing with a view to reducing the risk of the spread of the COVID-19 virus in the community, the Registry urges its customers to continue to deliver documents electronically or by post. Customers should avoid visiting the Registry's office premises unless they require urgent service. The Registry's services on registration of documents and public search services will continue to be provided electronically through the "e-Registry" (www.eregistry.gov.hk), "Cyber Search Centre" (www.icris.cr.gov.hk) and the website of the Registry for Trust and Company Service Providers (www.tcsp.cr.gov.hk).

The waiting time for public services provided at the Registry's offices will be longer as the provision of services will be scaled down. The Registry will also take a longer time to process the documents submitted in hard copy form.
 
Please check the latest announcements on the Registry's website at www.cr.gov.hk  for any updates.
