List as at 31 August 2026. The status compares the listed expiry date with the day you are viewing (Hong Kong time); later renewals, revocations or new licences are not reflected. Scroll within the list to see more. Companies not shown can still be searched; finding a licence does not mean the website, phone number or intermediary contacting you is verified.

Hong Kong money lender licence lookup

Does business registration mean a finance company may lend money?

No. Business registration only concerns carrying on a business in Hong Kong; lending money as a business in Hong Kong generally requires a money lender’s licence under the Money Lenders Ordinance. Rely on the Companies Registry’s money lender records, not just a certificate image shown on a company’s website.

Banks, deposit-taking companies and some statutorily exempt institutions are regulated under other regimes, so they may not appear on the money lender lists. If you cannot find a name, first confirm the type of institution the other party claims to be and its full legal name.

Licence status

Four licence statuses that mean very different things

01

On the list of licensees

The name is on the Companies Registry’s list of licensees as at a stated date, with the licence expiry date. The list is not a live record: after the expiry date, check with the Companies Registry even if a renewal application is noted. You still need to check the licence number, the company name and whether the person contacting you really represents the company.

02

Application in progress

This only means an application has been submitted, not that a licence has been granted. The other party should not advertise an application number as a current licence.

03

Licence expired

This is a historical record and is not enough to show that the company holds a licence now. Some renewal cases may carry a remark; check the latest official information.

04

Withdrawn or dismissed

The application did not become a current licence. If the other party still claims to be licensed, stop giving personal information and check directly with the official source.

How to use

Found the company name? Check these five things with the official source

  1. Check the full name and licence numberEnglish abbreviations, similar Chinese names or names that sound alike may point to a different company. Note the licence number and the listed expiry date in the result.
  2. Check the Companies Registry’s latest listThe list of licensees can be viewed and downloaded free of charge; this page only reflects the version as at the listed date. To search the Money Lenders Register, use the Companies Registry’s e-services, at HK$17 per search.
  3. Check appointed third partiesIf an intermediary contacts you, check the intermediary’s name and contact details against the Companies Registry’s list of appointed third parties before deciding whether to sign anything.
  4. Find the official contact details yourselfDo not just call back a number from WhatsApp or a text message; contact the company again through the official record or its official website.
  5. Read the interest rate and advertisements carefullySince 30 December 2022, the statutory interest rate cap has been an effective annual rate of 48%, and the threshold for an extortionate rate is 36%. Licensed money lenders’ advertisements must carry the warning “Warning: You have to repay your loans. Don’t pay any intermediaries.” and a complaint hotline.

FAQ

Finance company licence search: FAQ

Does a money lender’s licence mean the company is safe?

No. Licence status is not a reputation rating, and it does not prove that the person contacting you is the licensed company. Before borrowing, still check the interest rate, fees, contract and the other party’s identity.

Why does searching by brand name find nothing?

A brand name may differ from the legal entity’s name. Ask the other party for the full Chinese and English company name, the money lender’s licence number or the MLR number, then search again.

How should I read “renewal in progress”?

The official list uses the remark “R” to show that an application for renewal is in progress. Agoodeal only reproduces this remark and does not judge the outcome of the renewal; if the listed expiry date has passed, check with the Companies Registry using the licence number in the result.

What if I suspect someone is impersonating a company?

Stop paying and stop sending identity information, keep the conversation and payment instructions, and verify using official contact details you have found yourself; if a scam is suspected, contact the police.

Data explained

Check the status first, then the identity

“Listed” only means the name appears on the Companies Registry’s list of licensees as at 31 August 2026, compared with the listed expiry date on the day you are viewing; it does not confirm that a valid licence is still held today. “Application in progress” does not mean a licence has been granted. “Expired” or “withdrawn / dismissed” should never be treated as a current licence.

Sources and notes

The data come from the list of licensees published by the Money Lenders Registry of the Companies Registry. Agoodeal only compiles the list for checking and does not certify any company as safe or reputable.
