Hong Kong Housing Authority & Housing Department

For HA's PRH households who have successfully purchased a flat under HOS 2025 or GSH 2025 using Green Form,  upon

  1. the date of taking over keys of the flat; or
  2. the 10th working day from the date of execution of the Deed of Assignment of the flat inclusively, whichever is earlier,

they shall immediately submit a Notice-to-Quit to the HA for terminating the tenancy of their units within 60 days. They shall return their PRH units in vacant possession to the HA on or before the day the tenancy is terminated.

Tenants unable to return their PRH units within the specified period have to submit an application in advance to the HA for an extension of stay up to 30 days. If the extension is approved, they will have to pay an occupation fee for that period.
(Note: If the tenant has been paying 2.5 times the net rent/licence fee plus rates or below before the deadline for vacating the PRH unit, the occupation fee for that period will be equivalent to three times net rent/licence fee plus rates. If the tenant has been paying 3.5 times or 4.5 times the net rent/licence fee plus rates before the deadline for vacating the PRH unit, the occupation fee for that period will be equivalent to the prevailing rent/licence fee level plus rates. If the tenant has been paying market rent before the deadline for vacating the PRH unit, the occupation fee for that period will be charged at either the rate of market rent or 4.5 times the net rent plus rates for that period, whichever is the higher.)
