1. Can I change my employer freely when holding a working visa in Hong Kong?
No. You have to apply for another working visa. Your Hong Kong employment visa specifies your employer who is supposed to provide support for you when you are working in Hong Kong. If you have changed your employer in Hong Kong, you should notify the Immigration Department and apply for visa renewal under change of employment. An IANG visa holder can change his employer freely without notifying the Immigration Department.
2. Do I need a visa after I registered a company in Hong Kong?
The answer depends on whether you will provide any products or services in Hong Kong.

However, if you do come to Hong Kong for business activities that involves in provision of any products or services, you will need to apply for an Investment / Employment Visa. There have been many cases when visit visas holders were arrested because of provision of services in Hong Kong.
