## Country facts

- Country code: HK
- Currency: HKD (Hong Kong Dollar)
- Popular ccTLDs: .hk, .com.hk, .香港
- Local presence required: no
- Payment notes: HKIRC registrars invoice in Hong Kong dollars. Global registrars bill in USD, and the HKD peg keeps that FX exposure small compared with most markets.
- Support languages: Cantonese and written Chinese support come from Hong Kong registrars; English is widely supported on both sides, so language rarely decides this one.

## ccTLDs

### .hk

Hong Kong's country code at the second level, the open category.

- Eligibility: Open. Local or overseas individuals and entities may register, generally with no supporting documents required for second-level registration.
- Notes: HKIRC operates the registry and publishes the eligibility table and registrar list. The unrestricted second level is the only Hong Kong string a foreign buyer can take without establishing local standing.
- Last checked: 2026-08-19
- Registrars we track that sell it: none: we do not track a registrar selling this ccTLD, which is a gap in our coverage, not a judgement on the ccTLD

### .com.hk

Commercial third level, the conventional Hong Kong company identity.

- Eligibility: Restricted to commercial entities registered in Hong Kong. Requires a Business Registration Certificate from the Inland Revenue Department, or a Certificate of Registration of a Non-Hong Kong Company from the Companies Registry.
- Notes: An overseas company can qualify, but only by registering formally in Hong Kong first. The certificate is the gate, not the nationality of the owner.
