Japanese people in Hong Kong consist primarily of expatriate business people and their families, along with a smaller number of single women.[3] Their numbers are smaller when compared to the sizeable presence of American, British, and Canadian expatriates. As of 2010[update], 21,518 Japanese people had registered as residents of Hong Kong with the Japanese consulate there.[4] Hong Kong also remains a popular destination for Japanese tourists on their way to Mainland China; in 2004, the Japanese consulate reported the arrival of more than one million Japanese tourists.[5]
According to the 2021 population census in Hong Kong, there are 10,291 Japaneses living in Hong Kong, plenty of them living in Eastern District and Kowloon City District,[6] such as Taikoo Shing, Sai Wan Ho and Hung Hom area.
