Starting a consulting business in Hong Kong? What kind of visa should you apply for?

Consulting Business Hong Kong

Consulting is a popular field in Hong Kong. Thus, it is no wonder that after working as a consultant in a  big company, you might want to embark on a journey of your own. However, what are the visa considerations for a private consultant in Hong Kong?

Stephen Barnes points out:

If you plan to start a consulting business in Hong Kong, you will require an investment visa.

Every case is unique and will be considered on its own merits. However, one-man consulting businesses DO get approved by the Hong Kong Immigration Department, but it is important that the right conditions are present in the proposed new business situation. The story should also be told in a way as to emphasize how your new business will benefit the economy of Hong Kong.
