QUICK ENQUIRY

Hong Kong for sure is one of the most happening places in the world. From advanced technology, great infrastructure to the highest level of skilled migrant workers – Hong Kong has it all. Now, it opens up the Hong Kong Quality Migrant Admission Scheme (QMAS).
It is an entrant scheme which aims to attract talent from different parts of the globe to increase its economic competitiveness in the world market. Thus, it maintains the tag of being a significant financial center in Asia.
Hong Kong calls skilled foreign workers to its turf to live and work there. Allows them to migrate with their families i.e. their spouse and children below 18, and explore related employment opportunities.
The process of filing for QMAS is simple. It requires you to take any one of the two points-based tests – General Points Test or Achievement Based Points Test. These tests ensure that you meet the eligibility criteria such as age, education, language, experience, character, and financial resources.
Once you clear the test and obtain the required score, a visa application can be filed with the Hong Kong Immigration Department. The application goes through the selection process conducted by the department and the results are shared on the official website and a notification is sent to you thereafter. If the application is selected, the applicant will receive an approval-in-principle, followed by the issuance of Visa/entry permit.
Check eligibility with AANDC Immigration. Good if you can talk to our immigration experts prior to initiating the process.
