30 Dec 2022 06:48 CET

The Hong Kong government earlier announced a number of "Grabbing Talents and Enterprises" measures, among which the "Top Talent Pass Scheme", which solicits high-salaried talents or graduates from the world's top 100 universities, has been accepting applications since December 28th, and the online platform, which provides one-stop electronic services, has also been launched simultaneously.

The Top Talent Pass Scheme will be reviewed within one year to consider graduates from prestigious institutions in specific disciplines in addition to graduates from the top 100 universities in the world.

Easson Holdings Limited was established in 2002 and is based in Hong Kong. The company has been listed on Euronext since 2007 (Stock Code: MLEAS). Over the past 20 years, EASSON has evolved from being a telecommunication service provider in education, to online cross-border service provider, in global immigration, international travel and offshore company services, etc.

The Top Talent Pass Scheme launched by the HK Government to bring in top talents will attract a large number of global talents to Hong Kong. EASSON will be committed to introducing top talents coming to Hong Kong.

About TTPS:

Top Talent Pass Scheme for a period of two years. Eligible talents will include individuals whose annual salary reached HK$2.5 million or above in the past year, and individuals graduated from the world's top 100 universities with at least three years of work experience over the past five years. These two categories of talents will be issued a two-year pass for exploring opportunities in Hong Kong and are not subject to any quota. Individuals who graduated from the world's top 100 universities in the past five years and have yet to fulfil the work experience requirement will also be eligible, subject to an annual quota of 10 000. The scheme will be reviewed after the first year of implementation.

ADVANTAGES: 

All other work visa applicants are required to find a job before they can submit their applications. One of the advantages of the Top Talent Pass program is that applicants do not need a job offer when applying for a visa, and if granted a visa, will be free to work in Hong Kong for at least two years.

However, if you plan to stay in Hong Kong for a long time, current legislation requires you to renew your visa until you have lived in the Hong Kong SAR for seven consecutive years before you can apply to become a permanent resident.
