1. It is convenient for children who give birth in Hong Kong to study in Hong Kong.
Many people immigrate to give their children a better education, but maybe their children go abroad to study, but they are still at home, because their career and life focus are still at home. As a result, it has caused long-term family separation. The distance between Hong Kong and the Mainland is very close, and the education in Hong Kong is also in line with international standards. Let children study in Hong Kong, which is convenient for contacting parents. When parents miss their children, they can book tickets immediately and arrive in Hong Kong immediately. Or, children can fly back to the mainland immediately after a holiday. You don't have to take long-distance flights again and again, and you don't have to worry about your children on the one hand and your career and life at home on the other.
At the same time, with Hong Kong as a springboard, it is easier to apply for prestigious universities in Europe and America. In addition, after obtaining the non-permanent status of Hong Kong, you can register for examinations in Macao, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Xiamen and other places as Hong Kong, and enroll in domestic universities without taking the national unified examination. At the same time, enrolling in domestic universities can enjoy preferential treatment for overseas Chinese students, and the content and form of the test questions are different from those of domestic candidates. Super English ability, Chinese and western thinking and international vision make children have super competitive ability both in mainland China, Hong Kong and abroad.
2. The Hong Kong welfare that you can really enjoy if you give birth in Hong Kong.

The social welfare system in Hong Kong is very sound, including social security and relief system, social service system, education and medical security system, and low-rent public housing system. As a permanent resident of Hong Kong, you can enjoy these benefits.

If you suddenly have any illness, you can really enjoy all kinds of benefits in Hong Kong because of the convenient transportation and extremely short distance between Hong Kong and the mainland.
3. Children's parents are easy to adapt and integrate.
Hong Kong is separated from the mainland by a river, and there is little difference in diet, language and culture. Hong Kong is recognized as a gourmet paradise, and tea restaurants in Hong Kong are also very popular in the Mainland. At the same time, most people in Hong Kong also speak Mandarin, and books, newspapers and periodicals are all in Chinese, without any language barriers. No matter whether children or parents live, there will be no discomfort.
Second, having one more Hong Kong identity can avoid many problems.
Most of them go to Hong Kong to give birth, in order to obtain a Hong Kong identity and retain China nationality. These people have different reasons and considerations for taking one more Hong Kong identity.
1. Avoid giving up China citizenship.
According to the Nationality Law of the People's Republic of China, the China government does not recognize dual nationality. For mainland residents (that is, residents with PRC passports), as long as you become a foreign national, it means that you automatically give up your China nationality. Similarly, although Hong Kong is also a part of China, if you get a HKSAR passport, you should give up your China passport. Generally speaking, mainland residents who immigrate to Hong Kong can keep their China passports and their domestic household registration and identity if they don't take SAR passports. However, the China government has a special judicial interpretation on the case that Hong Kong residents have the nationality of other countries.
For Hong Kong residents, the China government does not require them to voluntarily renounce their China nationality by joining other countries' nationality, and the China government does not recognize their other countries' nationality until they voluntarily renounce their China nationality. This means that if you want to retain China nationality but want to have another nationality, you only need one more Hong Kong identity. For example, now that you have China nationality and American nationality, you can enter and leave the United States with a green card, enter and leave Hong Kong with a Hong Kong ID card, and enter and leave China with a China passport. Only the China government will still regard him as a Hong Kong resident, but will not recognize that you have the consular protection and jurisdiction of the United States enjoyed by ordinary American residents in China.
2. Even with a Hong Kong passport, you are still a China citizen.
Generally speaking, mainland residents who immigrate to Hong Kong can choose to give up their China passports or keep their China passports if they hold SAR passports. However, in comparison, Hong Kong passports can bring more convenience to investors, because Hong Kong passports can be exempted from visas1more than 50 countries and regions. It is very convenient for both work and travel. In addition, because Hong Kong is a part of China, it is still a China citizen with a Hong Kong passport, and can return to China with a Home Visit Permit, and still enjoy the rights and interests of China citizens.
3. Children's future work
Many people go to Hong Kong to give birth to their children's education. They send their children to the United States and Canada, but when they graduate, they will face many problems. After graduation, many international students want to enter international enterprises to study and accumulate experience, but foreign employment protection makes it difficult for them to find non-labor jobs. At this time, if you come back to China, what you have learned abroad may not be used at home, and after staying abroad for so long, many thoughts and habits have been westernized, and there may be many adaptation problems at home. However, Hong Kong itself is an international metropolis and a meeting point of Chinese and Western cultures. If you go to work in Hong Kong, many problems will be solved.
4. Hong Kong laws give you more sense of security.
According to the Basic Law, all laws previously in force in Hong Kong (that is, common law, equity, ordinances, subordinate legislation and customary law) shall be maintained, except those that contravene the Basic Law or are amended by the legislature of the HKSAR. The national laws of the People's Republic of China shall not be applied in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, except those relating to national defense and foreign affairs listed in Annex III of the Basic Law. This shows that the HKSAR enjoys administrative, legislative and independent judicial power, including that of final adjudication, in accordance with the provisions of the Basic Law. At the same time, Hong Kong law belongs to the common law system, which is relatively fair, just and open. This makes many people feel very safe in their hearts. If something happens in the future, they can go to Hong Kong.
5. There is no family planning policy in Hong Kong.
China mainland strictly implements the family planning policy, which makes it very difficult for many people who want to have more children. Hong Kong encourages prenatal and postnatal care, and now many stars choose to immigrate to Hong Kong in order to have a second baby. Moreover, a baby born in Hong Kong is a Hong Kong resident at birth and can directly get a HKSAR passport.
3. Hong Kong's taxation is simple and low, and there is no global taxation.
Hong Kong is a world-famous duty-free port, and there is no tariff on the import and export of goods. Hong Kong's tax system is low, simple and predictable. Direct taxes are only corporate profits tax, personal salaries tax and property tax. At the same time, Hong Kong belongs to territorialism and has no global taxation. There is no capital gains tax, and dividend income is exempted. No inheritance tax, no gift tax.
