What documents do mainlanders need to find a job in Hong Kong?

Mainlanders need a stay visa to find a job in Hong Kong.

Persons who go to Hong Kong for internship, education, employment, residence and training, or those who go to Hong Kong as dependants, must submit the original entry permit issued by the Hong Kong Immigration Department and submit a copy.

If you apply for employment in Hong Kong through a labor management company, you must also submit a copy of the Audit Form for Labor Cooperation Projects in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region issued by the relevant local commercial authorities. If you continue to apply for a stay endorsement after the expiration of the validity period, submit the original extension permit issued by the Hong Kong Immigration Department and submit a copy.

If a person who holds a valid passport to and from Hong Kong and Macao and goes to Hong Kong or Macao for employment through a labor management company continues to apply for a stay endorsement during his employment in Hong Kong and Macao, the labor management company may apply for a stay endorsement on his behalf. The labor management company shall file the company seal and the signature of the person in charge with the entry-exit administration department of the relevant public security organ where the labor management company is located in advance.
