There are several types of companies in Hong Kong that are suitable for different needs of foreign business owners, entrepreneurs, and investors. However, foreign investors normally choose three types of companies including Limited Liability, Sole Proprietorship, and Partnership to set up businesses in Hong Kong.

  • Limited Liability: Most people prefer to choose a Limited Liability Company to start their business because of its advantages for the owner. The company is the legal entity and separate from the owner means personal assets are protected by law from the liabilities and businesses’ risks.
  • Sole Proprietorship: This type of company is suitable for low risk and small scale businesses. The process to set up a sole proprietorship is simple and fast. However, the company is not a separate legal entity and personal assets are not protected from the liabilities and businesses’ risks.
