What bank accounts can Hong Kong companies open?
There are three options for opening a Hong Kong company account, including local bank account, offshore bank account, and digital bank.
Local banks in Hong Kong are the preferred choice for overseas customers because they are an international financial center where capital inflows and outflows are not regulated, and account usage tends towards internationalization with high stability. There are multiple options available, including HSBC Bank in Hong Kong, OCBC Bank in Hong Kong, Dah Sing Bank, DBS Bank, and Construction Bank in Hong Kong.

Sellers who do not want to open overseas company accounts in Hong Kong can choose to open offshore bank accounts, in addition to Hong Kong HSBC and Overseas Chinese Wing Hang OCBC face-to-face interviews at domestic branches. Offshore bank accounts are equivalent to bank accounts opened overseas, such as DBS Bank, HSBC Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, etc. Foreign trade bosses can open accounts in nearby cities or designated cities in mainland China, making account opening convenient.
Digital banks can only accept wire transfers of trade funds and have functions of transfer and settlement. They do not have physical banking services and have relatively weak stability.
