About the Program

The seminar, Strategic Hiring in Hong Kong: Practical Legal Insights for Employers on Talent Schemes, has been developed by Leon Mao in response to emerging issues and growing client interest in this area. It aims not only to address key questions and provide practical insights to support your business, but also to offer a comprehensive overview of the various visa and entry schemes available in Hong Kong, including:

  • General Employment Policy
  • Admission Scheme for Mainland Talents and Professionals
  • Technology Talent Admission Scheme
  • Training and Top Talent Pass Scheme
  • Quality Migrant Admission Scheme

Leon will explore these schemes from both employer-sponsored and individual perspectives, covering key aspects such as eligibility, application processes, processing times, visa durations, and renewal procedures. The seminar will also touch on legal considerations including tax, social security, dependant visa issues, employee transfers for increasing talent moving from Mainland China to Hong Kong, as well as recent and upcoming regulatory changes.

There will be an opportunity for discussion and questions following Leon’s presentation.
