The registered office must be a <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">physical address<\/span>, but it doesn't to be the place where you do business. Companies Registry did not accept companies using Post Office (\"PO\") Box numbers as their registered office.\r\n\r\nIn additions, the Company Ordinance does not specify the number of companies which can be registered at the same address. In other words, an address can be used as registered office by unlimited number of companies.\r\n<blockquote>Purpose of Registered Office<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"styled-list  icon-accent1\">\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Legally required under Hong Kong Company Law;<\/li>\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Official contact address for official government mail especially for receiving profits tax return from Inland Revenue;<\/li>\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Details are placed on public record to create corporate transparency; and<\/li>\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Statutory records and registers must be kept and made available for inspection at the registered office.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<blockquote>Can I use my home as a registered office?<\/blockquote>\r\nYou may use your home (except public housing)for this purpose but it is not mandatory, nor is it the best choice. Ideally, you should use a non-residential address for reasons of privacy and professionalism.\r\n\r\nThe benefits of a non-residential registered office:\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"styled-list  icon-accent1\">\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Due to the public disclosure of corporate information, the use of a residential address could result in unwanted visitors and unsolicited mail at your home;<\/li>\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">A non-residential address in a prestigious location will appeal to a larger consumer base and discerning investors; and<\/li>\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">More likely to be perceived as an established, credible business if you have a professional registered office address.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<blockquote>What is the difference between a registered office and a business address?<\/blockquote>\r\nAs the official address of your company, only statutory mail from government agencies is delivered to the registered office. A business address, on the other hand, is used as a contact point for all other kinds of correspondence from clients, suppliers and other third parties.\r\n\r\nThere is no legal requirement to have a business address that matches your registered office, but you can certainly use the same address for both purposes as long as it meets the required criteria of a registered office.\r\n<blockquote>Our Professional services<\/blockquote>\r\nWe provide registered address service especially for companies established in Hong Kong without a physical office. Use our address for registration and communication, companies are able to comply with the requirement of \"registered address\" under the Companies Ordinance. Our scope of registered office service is as followings:\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"styled-list  icon-accent1\">\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Provision of our office address as your Company's registered office address;<\/li>\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Collect government letters on behalf of your company;<\/li>\r\n \t<li class=\" icon-b theme\" data-icon=\"&#57349;\">Renew of business registration service;
