A regional office (RO) is an office that coordinates
offices/operations in the region (i.e.
Hong Kong plus one or more other
places), and manages
the business but with frequent referrals to its parent company outside
Hong Kong or
its regional headquarters .
In the case of a joint-ventured regional office in Hong Kong, there
may be more than one
country/territory of incorporation/location of its
parent
company/companies.
