The service to administer declarations or oaths/affirmations for private use will be available.
The hotline (2835 1535) and service counter of the Estate Beneficiaries Support Unit (EBSU) will operate from 11am to 3pm from Monday to Friday.
The waiting time for the services provided by the HAEC and the EBSU may be longer as the provision of services will be further scaled down.

Submissions of licensing applications in connection with hotels, guesthouses and other premises as well as entertainment can be made by post or using e-submission. Application forms and submission details can be found on the webpage of the Office of the Licensing Authority at www.hadla.gov.hk.
