Hey, future movers and shakers! 🌏 Hong Kong is rolling out the red carpet for global talent with some exciting updates to its Top Talent Pass Scheme (TTPS)! 🎉
On Friday, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) government announced that graduates from 13 more universities can now apply for the TTPS. 📚 This includes nine universities from the Chinese mainland and four overseas institutions specializing in \"Art and Design\" according to the QS World University Rankings. 🌟 That brings the total number of eligible universities to a whopping 198! 🏫
But wait, there's more! 📣 To make the move even sweeter, the HKSAR government is extending the validity of the first visas for Category A applicants from two years to three years. ✈️ This gives you more time to plan your big adventure and even move your family to the vibrant city of Hong Kong! 🏙️❤️
So, who's a Category A applicant? 🤔 If you earned an annual income of 2.5 million Hong Kong dollars (that's about 321,471 U.S. dollars) or more in the last year, you're in! 💰💼
And if you're eyeing the Quality Migrant Admission Scheme, good news there too! 🎊 The HKSAR government has removed the annual quota and streamlined the application process. Less hassle, more opportunities! 🚀
So, what are you waiting for? 🤩 Hong Kong is calling, and it's ready to embrace new talents from around the globe. Time to pack your bags and start your next big adventure! 🛫🌠
