With the goal of expediting the admission of foreign specialists in critical technical domains, Hong Kong has introduced the 2025 edition of the Technology Talent Admission Scheme (TechTAS).

By providing a streamlined visa application process for professionals in high-tech fields like biotechnology, robotics, finance, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence, this program aims to solidify Hong Kong’s standing as a global centre for technology.

TechTAS offers qualified businesses in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) an effective approach to hire non-local technology expertise for R&D positions.

New visa scheme to reduce bureaucratic delays 

Because of the program’s huge reduction in bureaucratic delays, tech companies can quickly hire qualified workers.

Employers can speed up international recruitment, thanks to this scheme’s two-week processing time for visa applications.

Professionals from highly regarded universities with a focus on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are the target audience for the program. But it also takes into account outstanding applicants who have made noteworthy contributions to the sector or who possess excellent technical abilities.

Eligibility criteria 

In order to be eligible, candidates must have a full-time job offer in Hong Kong and work mostly in research and development (R&D) in a variety of cutting-edge technical fields, such as material science, green technology, and quantum computing.

With a valuation of over $100 billion, Hong Kong’s IT sector is still growing and presents several chances for investment and innovation.

The city’s standing as Asia’s Silicon Valley is being strengthened by its close proximity to significant Chinese IT companies like Tencent, Alibaba, and Huawei.

Securing a job with a technology business based in Hong Kong that has an authorised quota under the program is the first step in the application procedure.

The visa application is subsequently sponsored by the employer, who requests supporting papers such as evidence of work experience, academic credentials, and pertinent professional accomplishments.

After being accepted, candidates and their dependant children under the age of eighteen, as well as their spouses, may move to Hong Kong to start working.
