Recognition of overseas bodies
Members of overseas accountancy bodies which have various types of recognition agreements with the Hong Kong Institute of CPAs ("the Institute") are eligible for full or partial exemption from the Institute's qualification programme for membership admission. These agreements are based upon mutual reviews of the examinations and qualification processes between the Institute and the overseas bodies.
