Professional Services

20.         The professional services we provide are on a par with international standards and renowned for their high quality and efficiency.  Hong Kong and the Mainland encourage the mutual recognition of professional qualifications by our respective professional bodies, and facilitate access to the Mainland market by Hong Kong's professional services through the Mainland and Hong Kong Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA).   CEPA has introduced various market liberalisation measures for Hong Kong's professional services sector, including allowing Hong Kong residents to sit the Mainland's professional qualification examinations, simplifying internship requirements, facilitating registration and practising, and lowering market entry thresholds.
