The Government of the People’s Republic of China also makes the following declarations:

  • 1. Paragraph 2 of Article 16 of the Convention will not apply to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

  • 2. In accordance with Article 20 of the Convention, the provisions of the Convention will be extended to trusts declared by judicial decisions in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
