I am from Guangzhou and want to settle and get married in Hong Kong. What are the procedures?

Do you want to get married first and settle down first?

First of all, Hong Kong does not accept mainland investment immigrants

1. Marry a Hong Kong citizen and apply after marriage. , you can get a Hong Kong ID card after 5 years (with D7 years).

2. If your parents are in Hong Kong, they are over 60 years old, and there is no one to take care of them, then you can live in Hong Kong in the name of taking care of them.

3. If a company invites you to work in Hong Kong, you can apply. After working for 7 years, you can get your status.

4. Apply for the Talents Program, which is about a few dollars. It can be done in a month, which is the shortest time, but it is difficult to apply. Usually it is for particularly outstanding people. Generally, you can get the ID card within 1 year. For example, Zhang Ziyi, Lang Lang, Tang Wei, Li Ning, Liu Xuan, Yang Wei, Zhou Xun etc., all went through the excellent talents plan.

5. Born in Hong Kong, there is no concept of household registration in Hong Kong. No matter where your parents are from, no matter whether you have real estate in Hong Kong or not, as long as you are legally in Hong Kong If you are born in a hospital and have a birth certificate, you can apply for a Hong Kong ID card.

If you want to get married, you need to go to the marriage registration office to make an appointment to schedule the registration. The appointment can be made online or by phone. It takes about a week after the appointment. You will be notified (one of the parties is sufficient) to pay the fee at the registration office. When paying the fee, you will need your ID card, pass, and hometown return permit. You can make an appointment on a date of your choice. Until the day of registration, both men and women must bring their ID cards, passes, and hometown return permits. The registration procedure is completed. No photos required. Hong Kong's marriage certificate is a piece of paper, phaseless.

For those under 21, two guardians’ signatures are required. If you are over 21, you only need two witnesses.
