What is an IANG Visa?
The IANG scheme allows non-local graduates of HK institutions, and certain overseas university graduates, to stay or come to HK for up to 24 months without a specific job offer to seek employment or start a business.

Investment Visa: typically 4–6 weeks. Employment Visa: typically 4–6 weeks. Processing times vary; the Immigration Department does not commit to specific timelines.
