Search Hong Kong companies newly incorporated, registered, or renamed on the Companies Registry (香港公司註冊處, cr.gov.hk) since 30 Dec 2024 — official open data via data.gov.hk, updated weekly. Match by company name (English or Chinese, substring, case-insensitive) or an exact Business Registration (BR) number. Returns each match's BR number, English and Chinese name, company type (Hong Kong local / non-Hong Kong), incorporation-or-registration date, and any name-change date, plus the matching HKEX ticker when the name resolves to a listed stock (joined via the same Yahoo Finance lookup hk_resolve_symbol uses — only attached on a confident name match, never guessed). LIMITATION: this only covers companies newly incorporated, registered, or renamed since 2024-12-30 — it is NOT the full historical company register and does NOT return registered address or company status for companies outside that window (Hong Kong publishes no open API for those; only the Companies Registry's paid Cyber Search Centre does). Use for "is there a new HK company called X", "HK BR number for Y", "香港新註冊公司 X".
