Apply for a money lender's license
Under the Money Lenders Ordinance (Chapter 163), the Licensing Court must consider the following factors when handling money lender licence applications.

To apply for a money lender's license in Hong Kong, an application must be submitted to the Companies Registry and reviewed by the Police Force. The core requirements are to prove that you are a suitable person to carry out a money lending business, have a suitable office location (with the consent of the landlord), and a sound business plan. The process involves a court ruling on the license. Applicants need to provide personal background, financial status, proof of experience, and a detailed business plan. It usually takes about 3-4 months and an application fee must be paid.
