Do mainlanders have to change their English names into Hong Kong permanent residents and Hong Kong passports in Cantonese? Still using the original Chinese pinyin?

1. When you apply for a Hong Kong identity card for the first time, you can choose your English name, which can be either mainland pinyin or Cantonese pinyin, even if you have an English name completely unrelated to Chinese. However, if you want to change the English name on your ID card in the future, you will have to spend a name change fee.

If you often live and work in the mainland, I suggest that it is more convenient for you to use mainland pinyin.
