Elegibilidad
Quality Migrant Admission Scheme (QMAS) General Points Test: 12 assessment criteria across 6 aspects (age <=50; academic qualification; language proficiency; work experience; annual income >=HK$1,000,000; business ownership); applicant must select and satisfy 6 of the 12 criteria to pass. Prerequisites: age >=18, financially self-sufficient, no adverse record, first degree/equivalent. Admits receive 36-month initial stay, time-limitation only. QMAS Achievement-based Points Test (alternative to the General Points Test): only 2 criteria, of which satisfying ONE suffices - (a) international/national top-level award, OR (b) work/achievement acknowledged by peers as a significant contribution to the field. Admits receive an 8-year initial stay, time-limitation only (materially longer than the 36-month GPT grant), reflecting the higher substantive bar. All talent/employment residence schemes (

  • Yes — QMAS (including the General Points Test) does not require a prior HK job offer; it is a points-based scheme assessing age, education, work experience, language ability, and other factors.

    QMAS admits a capped/quota-managed number of successful applicants annually; current quota utilisation should be checked directly with IMMD (NLR-tracked, changes over time) before assuming immediate approval.

  • The QMAS Achievement-based list is designed for applicants with an outstanding record of achievement in their field (which can include exceptional sporting accomplishment) as an alternative to the points-based GPT track; whether an Olympic medal specifically satisfies the current Achievement-list criteria requires confirmation against the live IMMD published list.

    Do not assume automatic qualification from a single achievement — the Achievement list has its own published, narrowly-defined criteria that should be checked directly.

  • Meeting the points threshold makes an applicant eligible to be considered, but QMAS operates under an annual quota; being above the points threshold does not guarantee selection if the quota for the period is already filled.

    Current quota utilisation figures are NLR-tracked (must be checked against live IMMD data at time of application) rather than assumed static.

  • QMAS is a talent-admission scheme assessing personal points/achievement, not a business or investment visa; starting a company in HK is typically pursued through a separate business/entrepreneur visa channel (or, for larger capital commitments, the investment route HK-CIES-01), not QMAS.

    QMAS should not be conflated with business-establishment visas; recommend he research HK's specific entrepreneur/investment visa channels directly rather than assuming QMAS covers business founders.
