Written by Sneha Patwari, Corporate Secretary Lead
I've guided hundreds of founders through the incorporation process across Hong Kong and Singapore. The questions are always different; the mistakes are usually the same. I write to help people avoid them.
Key Takeaways
Choose Statrys if you want incorporation, a native multi-currency account, and pay-per-use accounting under one login, with human support when something needs sorting out.
Choose Osome if you already have a Hong Kong-registered address and only need basic incorporation, with the option to add services later.
The deciding factor is usually the registered address and what you do after year one: Statrys bundles the address and keeps accounting usage-based; Osome's Essential tier assumes you already have an address and prices accounting/audit/tax as a separate annual tier.
Statrys provides company registration services in Hong Kong and competes directly with Osome. This comparison was checked directly against both companies' live pricing pages in September 2026. While we include ourselves here, our priority is an accurate, side-by-side read rather than a sales pitch.
What Should You Compare Before You Choose?
- Registered address: Bundled, or does the entry tier assume you already have one?
- Accounting model: Pay-per-use based on actual transaction volume, or a fixed annual tier?
- Business banking: A native account on the same platform, or an introduction to a third-party partner?
- Support channels: Does it include WeChat, if you deal with mainland China?

Figures verified directly against statrys.com/hk/pricing and osome.com/hk/company-registration on September 2026.
A registered address is legally required to incorporate in Hong Kong. Statrys bundles it into one package; Osome's Essential tier assumes you already have one, so if you don't, factor in the gap to Comprehensive (or the standalone add-on) before comparing headline prices.
Accounting, Audit, and Tax Filing Services
| Service | Statrys | Osome |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | From HKD 891/month, pay-per-use, no monthly commitment | Operate: From HKD 3,500/yr Grow: From HKD 4,200/yr Scale: From HKD 10,188/yr (Osome's tiers scale up with annual revenue; figures shown are the lowest band, HKD 0–200,000/yr) |
| Financial Statements | Included | Included in Scale |
| Audit Support | Included | Included in Scale |
| Profit Tax Filing | Included | Included in Scale |
Statrys' fee scales with your actual monthly transaction volume, which keeps costs predictable for lean teams. Osome's tiers are annual plans priced by revenue band, so basic bookkeeping without audit or tax support can come in cheaper on Operate at the lowest band — but you'd need Scale for the same audit and tax filing coverage Statrys includes as standard, and all three tiers get notably more expensive as your revenue grows.
Registration Process Comparison
| Feature | Statrys | Osome |
|---|---|---|
| Remote Process | Yes | Yes |

| Approval Time | Within 5 business days | Within 5 business days |
Statrys lets you fill in basic details and check out without creating an account first. Osome asks you to choose or skip add-ons and create an account before payment.

User Reviews and Ratings
Statrys reviewers most often praise onboarding and support, while Osome's praise tends to centre on account-manager responsiveness and first-year value. On the complaints side, Statrys users most often mention compliance-check delays, and Osome users report missed or last-minute filing deadlines.
Conclusion
Both are workable options for incorporating in Hong Kong. Statrys suits founders who want the address, secretary, business account, and pay-per-use accounting under one login from day one. Osome suits founders who already have an address and are comfortable choosing a fixed annual tier for accounting as they grow. Check what your setup already has (address, banking) before comparing headline incorporation price alone — it changes which one is actually cheaper for your situation.

FAQs
Which is better: Osome or Statrys?
It depends on your setup. Statrys is the better fit if you want a registered address, business account (subject to approval), and direct support bundled together. Osome can work well if you already have a business address and prefer to handle accounting and tax filing yourself.
What's the difference between Osome and Statrys?
Statrys offers incorporation, an in-house multi-currency business account, and pay-per-use accounting on one platform. Osome takes a tiered approach, with separate incorporation and accounting plans you choose and combine.
How much is it to incorporate a company with Osome?
Osome's Hong Kong tiers are Essential at HKD 4,650 (discounted price; standard HKD 6,195, assumes you already have a registered address) and Comprehensive at HKD 8,950 (discounted price; standard HKD 8,950, address included). Statrys' package is HKD 7,875 (discounted price, standard HKD 8,750), including registered address, company secretary, and a fast-tracked business account application.

Yes. Hong Kong places no restrictions on foreign ownership. You'll still need a Hong Kong-registered address and a company secretary who is either a Hong Kong resident or a licensed corporate service provider.
How long does the company incorporation process take in Hong Kong?
Typically 4–5 business days once all required documents are in, for both providers compared here — timing depends on document readiness and each company's own processing queue.
