Before deciding to start a business, there are a few points to pay attention to, including the need to make adequate psychological preparations, and understand that the initial income of a business may be much lower than that of a part-time job, or even no income or a loss. In addition, a certain amount of savings must be set aside. Once the entrepreneurial performance is not satisfactory, and if he fails to return to the workplace immediately, it can be used for emergency purposes. When you are ready to be a boss, you can start a company and slowly implement your ambitions.
STEP 1: SELECT THE COMPANY TYPE
After members of the company have a clear understanding of their legal responsibilities, they can choose the category that best suits their company.
Co., Ltd .: The liability of shareholders is limited to the outstanding amount of their shares.
Guaranty Co., Ltd .: The company has no share capital, and the liabilities of company members are limited to the amount that each member promises to pay as company assets at the time of liquidation of the company through their articles of association. Non-profit making organizations are usually registered as guarantee companies.
STEP 2: DECIDE THE COMPANY NAME
There are three major considerations when drafting a company name:
Clearly know that Hong Kong registered company name guidelines prescribed
Log in to the online search center of the company registry to check the name of the existing company, so as not to be rejected due to repeated use

STEP 4: RECEIVE A CERTIFICATE
After successful company registration, the "prospective boss" can download or collect the "company registration certificate" and "business registration certificate". The certificate will be issued in electronic form or hard copy, depending on the form of delivery application, the electronic certificate has the same legal effect as the hard copy certificate.
Electronic application delivery
Private companies limited by shares will generally receive an electronic certificate within 1 hour, and an email notification about downloading the certificate will be sent to the information box and registered email address of the registered user who delivered the application.
Submit the application in hard copy
The hard copy certificate of a company limited by shares will generally be issued within 4 working days. When the certificate is available for collection, the Office will notify the file submitter by fax. The author must present the notice of "collection certificate" and the identity document / company seal contained on the notice when he comes to collect the certificate in person. If the author authorizes someone else to pick it up, the picker must show the authorisation signed by the author and the identity certificate indicated on the authorisation.
STEP 5: OBTAIN OTHER LICENSES OR PERMITS
Visit the website of the Trade and Industry Department for information on licenses, permits, certificates and approvals required for doing business in Hong Kong.
The income in the early stage of entrepreneurship may fall sharply compared to when working as a wage earner, and it may not necessarily succeed in the end. The most important thing for all "prospective bosses" is to have sufficient psychological preparation and plan to cope with difficulties. As the so-called "difficult to start a business, it is more difficult to maintain a career", you must continue to work hard to accumulate experience after you are promoted to elders!
