The Capital Investment Entrant Scheme (“CIES”)

In 2003 The Capital Investment Entrant Scheme (CIES) was launched by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) Government.  This scheme aims to facilitate the entry for residence through capital investment into permissible assets without the need to establish or join in a business.

Hong Kong is one of the World's leading financial centers and is the recognised Gateway to China.  With the CIES applicants can take up  employment, join or set up a business in Hong Kong with no restriction or requirement for visas.  They can benefit from one of the Worlds freest economies and a low, simple and predictable tax regime

After seven years of continuous or ordinary residence in Hong Kong, applicants and their dependents can apply for right of abode.

Since the scheme was launched over 2,000 applicants have successfully been granted Hong Kong residency.
