    Child Benefit

    Does Hong Kong offer Child Benefit to babies / children? A bit like UK child benefit from birth until age 16 / 20 in education?

    Thanks

    In the form of low taxes and low labor costs for imported helpers yes. But that is offset by high cost of living. Depends on how you arbitrage it and what kind of private subsidies you might get from your employer.
