This section provides an overview of copyright rules of Hong Kong, China's special administrative region, relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Hong Kong must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Hong Kong and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Hong Kong, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.
Governing laws
Hong Kong became a British colony in 1842. It was transferred back to China on 1 July 1997 as a special administrative region, with a separate system of government and legal system from mainland China.
Hong Kong has been a member of the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995. Hong Kong joined the Berne Convention effective 1 July 1997.
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Copyright Ordinance (Chapter 528) (consolidated version of May 27, 2016) as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Hong Kong.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[3] The Hong Hong eLegislation site also holds English and Traditional Chinese versions.
General
According to the Copyright Ordinance (Chapter 528) (consolidated version of May 27, 2016),

- The above does not apply to Government copyright or Legislative Council copyright (see sections 182 to 184) or to copyright which subsists by virtue of section 188 (copyright of certain international organizations).[528/2016 Section 17(8)]
- Copyright in a sound recording expires at the end of the period of 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which it is made; or if during that period it is released, 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which it is released.[528/2016 Section 18(2)]

정부의 저작물
According to the Copyright Ordinance (Chapter 528) (consolidated version of May 27, 2016),
- Where a work is made by an officer of the Government in the course of his duties the work qualifies for copyright protection and the Government is the first owner of any copyright in the work.[528/2016 Section 182(1)]
- Government copyright in a work continues to subsist (a) until the end of the period of 125 years from the end of the calendar year in which the work was made; or (b) if the work is published commercially before the end of the period of 75 years from the end of the calendar year in which it was made, until the end of the period of 50 years from the end of the calendar year in which it was first so published.[528/2016 Section 182(3)]
입법회의 저작물
According to the Copyright Ordinance (Chapter 528) (consolidated version of May 27, 2016),

However, a work is not regarded as made by or under the direction or control of the Legislative Council by reason only of its being commissioned by or on behalf of the Legislative Council.[528/2016 Section 184(4)]
Copyright tags
참조: 공용:저작권 틀
- {{PD-HK}} – for work with copyright expired.
- {{PD-HK-factsheet}} – for work taken from the GovHK Fact Sheets website.[6]
Currency
참조: 공용:화폐
괜찮지 않음 section 103(1) of the Crimes Ordinance (Chapter 200) of the Laws of Hong Kong stipulates that reproduction of currency notes without prior permission of the Monetary Authority is an offense, and individuals may be liable for imprisonment for 6 months and a fine of HK$20,000.
It is worth to note that any approved reproduction under section 103 does not permit further subsequent copies or reproductions to be made for other usage ends without the written consent of the Monetary Authority. Therefore, applications for reproduction of Hong Kong currency note images for further copying or reproduction by a third party will generally not be approved. This implies that digital reproductions (which by nature permit further reproductions) are unlikely to be approved by the Authority, and so are not legally appropriate for Commons.
Freedom of panorama
참조: Commons:파노라마의 자유
괜찮습니다 for 3D works and 2D artistic craftsmanships, 괜찮지 않음 for many other 2D works, unless HKSAR government stated OK separately in particular cases. {{FoP-Hong Kong}}
According to Copyright Ordinance (Chapter 528) (consolidated version of May 27, 2016), it is not a copyright infringement to make graphic representations, take photographs, or broadcast the images of buildings, sculptures, models for buildings and works of artistic craftsmanship, if the object is permanently situated in a public place or in premises open to the public.[528/2016 Section 71]
Because Hong Kong was a territory of the United Kingdom until 1997, Hong Kong law is modeled on UK law, and in the absence of any specific case law to the contrary it is reasonable to assume that the rules will be similar. See the United Kingdom for more details.
Similar to the UK law, 'works of artistic craftsmanship' is defined separately from 'graphic work'. The latter includes any painting, drawing, diagram, map, chart or plan, and any engraving, etching, lithograph, woodcut or similar work. Therefore freedom given in Sect 71 does not apply to posters or maps in public places.
Threshold of originality
참조: 공용:창작성의 기준
괜찮지 않음 for most logos. The level of originality required for copyright protection is presumably very low.

Stamps
