Talent: Hong KongTalent is a talent introduction program with a quota aimed at attracting high-tech talents or talents from all over the world to settle in Hong Kong. It is not subject to career restrictions. Approved applicants do not need to be hired by local employers before coming to Hong Kong. Therefore, Hong KongTalent is considered a kind of tech immigration .
Specialist: . Specialist is different from talented talents. The Specialist Program is a talent exchange project. It is to attract mainland Chinese residents with special skills, knowledge or experience that Hong Kong needs but lacks to work in Hong Kong. It belongs to the work visa . Applicants need to be hired by Hong Kong employer in advance before coming to Hong Kong.
IANG: The full name of the IANG visa is "Appointment for non-local graduates to stay in Hong Kong/return to Hong Kong for employment", so it is obvious that this also belongs to a work visa. However, compared with professionals, IANG belongs to "loose work visa" .
What is the right way for my situation?
Everyone's situation is different. Which method is suitable is that it requires a comprehensive assessment based on the personal situation before specific suggestions can be given.
If you have been hired by a local company in Hong Kong, the specialist method is the most suitable and the approval speed is fast. It’s just that changing jobs later requires approval from the Immigration Department.
Since its first launch in 2003, Hong Kong specialists have applied for an average of tens of thousands of applications each year, and the success rate is more than 80%.
But on the basis of "fast" and "simple", the applicant for Hong Kong specialist needs to meet a basic threshold - having a company in Hong Kong, or being hired by a Hong Kong company.
The best talent score can be submitted if you meet the score of 80 or above. If the conditions are met, you can try to get your Hong Kong identity through the best talent, and you can continue to live and work in the mainland.
However, according to the comprehensive scoring system of Hong Kong talents, Hong Kong talents have a clear target group: Many years of work experience, preferably international work experience, high education, graduates from prestigious universities, married people (spouse fluent in Chinese and English).
If you are worried about the pass rate of the best talent, or if you only have a college degree, the way to study abroad is the most suitable. , but applicants should have a bachelor's degree! ! Then time and energy allow you to go to Hong Kong to attend classes!
Can you get Hong Kong identity if you don’t want to work and live in Hong Kong?
If you don’t want to give up your current job, but want to get your Hong Kong identity, then the most suitable way is to pass the talent plan . After applying, you can get your Hong Kong identity. Among the several methods, the talent plan is the most flexible, and there is no requirement to work and live in Hong Kong. After the application is approved, you can still live and work in your current place.
