Hong Kong's Indian community has roots going back over 150 years, predating the 1841 British occupation itself, and today stands at approximately 44,140 people (Indian nationals and Persons of Indian Origin combined) per the Consulate General of India, Hong Kong & Macau's own published figures. Legal questions that reach back into India -- property, succession, taxation -- apply the same underlying Indian law regardless of country of residence, alongside Hong Kong-specific rules such as its Hague Apostille Convention coverage since 25 April 1965 (issued via the High Court Registry, not a foreign ministry), the Intestates' Estate Ordinance's fixed-sum spousal shares, the India-Hong Kong DTAA in force since 2018, Hong Kong SAR's status as one of the limited group of India's declared Section 44A reciprocating territories, and the Companies Ordinance's no-local-director but mandatory-local-secretary structure. Seven dedicated Hong Kong guides are live below.
