How It Works

A simple, transparent process whether you're buying or selling.

1

List or Search

For Sellers: Fill out the sell form with your business, shell company, or license details. Our team reviews and verifies the listing within 24 hours before publishing it on the exchange.

For Buyers: Browse active listings or submit a buy request with your criteria. If you don't see what you want, we'll search our network for you.

2

We Match & Connect

When a buyer is interested in a listing, they submit an inquiry. We review the inquiry and, if it's a serious match, we introduce both parties. Both sides remain confidential until mutual interest is confirmed.

3

Due Diligence

Both parties exchange information for verification. For businesses: financials, contracts, and operations. For shells: company records, annual returns, and incorporation documents. For licenses: validity, compliance history, and transfer requirements.

4

Agreement & Price Negotiation

Buyer and seller negotiate final terms. We facilitate the discussion but don't set the price. Once agreed, a formal Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA) is drafted.

5

Transfer & Completion

Shell Companies: Share transfer filed with Companies Registry — typically 3-5 business days.

Licenses: Transfer application to the relevant authority (2-12 weeks depending on type).

Businesses: Asset or share transfer, lease assignment, and handover — timelines vary by complexity.

6

Post-Transaction Support

After completion, we assist with any administrative follow-up: updating bank account signatories, notifying suppliers, or filing required post-transfer documents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about buying and selling on Easy Biz.

How much does it cost to list?
Browsing listings is free. Listing a business, shell, or license is also free. We charge a success fee only when a transaction completes — typically 2-5% of the deal value, depending on complexity.
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes. We do not publish your personal details with listings. Buyer inquiries are screened before any introduction. Your identity is only shared with a counterparty when you explicitly approve.
How fast can a shell company be transferred?
For a clean shell company with all documents in order, share transfer can be completed in as little as 3-5 business days. This involves filing the transfer with the Companies Registry and updating statutory records.
What licenses can be traded on Easy Biz?
Common license types include Money Lender's Licenses, Employment Agency Licenses, Travel Agent Licenses, Estate Agency Licenses (EAA), SFC licenses, and Contractor Licenses. Each license type has its own transfer rules set by the issuing authority.
Do you provide legal or financial advice?
Easy Biz is a marketplace and facilitator. We do not provide legal, tax, or financial advice. We recommend engaging qualified Hong Kong professionals for your transaction. We can refer you to trusted partners if needed.
Can overseas buyers use Easy Biz?
Yes. We work with overseas buyers interested in acquiring Hong Kong businesses, shells, or licenses. Additional KYC and compliance steps may apply for non-HK residents.
