Visa question - switching employers



ORIGINAL POST
Posted by janes addiction 17 yrs ago
is it easier to get approval from Immigration to hire an expat once they are already here than it is to bring them over for the first time? Worried about trying to hire an expat (i.e. justifying that there is no local who can fill the role), but I think I found the right person, and they just happen to be an expat. They already have a HK work visa from their last job (still valid).


In this case does one have to go through the same justification process with Immigration, or is it more of an admin task to just switch the visa over to a new employer?


Thanks for any comments.

visa transfer....one month or less.....new EP/WP visa....couple months.


Can hire as consultant, utilize visit visa, burden of tax on your new hire...but be conscious of this. don't be a bad boss IOW!
