Welcome to the website of the Judiciary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China.

The Judiciary maintains an independent and effective judicial system which upholds the rule of law, safeguards the rights and freedoms of the individual, and commands confidence within and outside Hong Kong. As justice should not only be done but should be seen to be done, it is important that the Judiciary and its work be widely understood by the community.

This website is the most frequently used channel through which we communicate with the community. Here you have ready access to a wealth of information about us, our services for court users, and our latest news and developments. Convenient links also connect you to our current major initiatives, such as the civil justice reform, promotion of mediation and the services provided by our Resource Centre for Unrepresented Litigants.

Thank you for visiting our website. I hope you will find it informative and interesting.
