UNCLAIMED IDENTITY CARDS AWAIT COLLECTION
The Commissioner of Registration today appealed to people who
have lost their Hong Kong Identity Cards to come forward and collect them.
Owners of lost cards can now collect them in person at the
Registration of Persons Office on the 4th floor of the Causeway Bay
Magistracy Building.
Found Identity Cards will be cancelled if they remain unclaimed
by their owners after a period of over three months.
Lists containing the names and numbers of the unclaimed cards
can be inspected at all City District Offices in the urban areas and
District Offices in the New Territories.
The Commissioner emphasised that if everyone notified his office
of their changes of previously registered particulars, it would be much
easier for lost identity cards to be returned to their owners.
