How do you get a "Business Registration Certificate" in Hong Kong? The bank tells me I kneed to get one before I can register a business account. But I'm rarely actually in Hong Kong while I'm setting up this new project so can I do it remotely by mail or email?

Thanks a million for any help. I wouldn't believe how hard it is to get a business off the ground in Asia, and I thought red tape was terrible back home!

Yes it is true that all businesses operating in HK need a Business Registration Certificate, or BR Cert. These are issued by the Inland Revenue Department or IRD of the Hong Kong Government.

There is also a Company Registration Certificate that is issued by the Company Register.

However you can get both using one application form.

More information is available here:

In practice though it is often easier to have a Hong Kong Agent do this for you, make sure you are using an agent who is registered directly with the department. There is a list of such agents on their web site.
