Foreign companies registered in HK in 1949

This page shows the foreign companies with a place of business in HK by year of registration, since records begin in 1946. A change in registration requirements took effect on 31-Aug-1984; it is possible that there were other foreign companies with a place of business in HK before that which were not registered with the Companies Registry.

Note: data on deregistrations are not reliable after 16-Nov-2020, when we started our last complete scan of the registry. On 22-Nov-2020, the registry implemented a new captcha system, preventing further data collection. The limited data available on data.gov.hk (comprising delayed weekly updates) only cover new registrations and name-changes, without stating domicile.
