Qualification requirements for company secretary
According to the Companies Ordinance, every limited company must appoint a company secretary. Basically, anyone who is over 18 years old and usually lives in Hong Kong can become a company secretary. However, since company secretaries need to have a certain understanding and familiarity with company laws, many people will choose to hire external company secretaries or choose secretarial companies. Since company secretaries need to be familiar with the operation of Hong Kong laws and companies ordinances, chartered company secretaries generally hired by large companies will receive professional training and obtain internationally recognized qualifications, such as the Chartered Governance Qualifying Program (CGQP) of the Hong Kong Institute of Chartered Secretaries. . As for small and medium-sized enterprises, due to operating cost considerations, they generally choose to hire a licensed secretarial company as company secretary. In Hong Kong, secretarial companies that can legally provide company secretarial services need to obtain a “Trust or Company Service Provider License” (TCSP) and must have a registered office or the address of a principal office in Hong Kong. The scope of the company secretary’s responsibilities is very wide. Generally, he will deal with the company’s “birth, old age, illness and death”, ranging from the establishment of the company, the annual inspection, and even the internal changes of the company to deregistration and liquidation.
