Application for the “Registration Certificate for Kindergarten Admission”:

1. Under the “Free Quality Kindergarten Education Scheme” (hereafter referred to as “Scheme”)

implemented by the government, each child who is eligible in receiving education in Hong Kong will only be issued one registration document and all Scheme-KGs can only admit students holding a valid registration document.

2. Parents are required to submit an application for the “Registration Certificate for Kindergarten

Admission” (hereafter referred as “RC”) to EDB from September to November 2023. The “RC” will be open for applications in September 2023 and EDB will announce and upload the details of application onto EDB’s website (link to be inserted) in due course. Upon receipt of the applications with all necessary information and documents, EDB will generally take six to eight weeks to complete the process of application and issue the “RC” to applicants who are eligible for receiving subsidy under the Scheme by post. If a student cannot obtain an “RC”, given the situation that he/she can receive education in Hong Kong but is not eligible to receive subsidy under Scheme 1, EDB will then issue a “Kindergarten Admission Pass” (hereafter referred to as “AP”) to the student concerned for registration and admission to a Scheme-KG. In this case, parents are required to pay full school fees before deduction of subsidy under the Scheme as shown on the Fees Certificate of the KG to which the child is admitted.
