Document background
The Freelance Experience Letter is a crucial document in Hong Kong's evolving gig economy landscape, serving as formal verification of a freelancer's professional engagement. It is typically required when freelancers need to demonstrate their work history to potential clients, employers, or institutions, or when seeking to establish their professional credentials. The document must carefully navigate Hong Kong's legal framework, particularly in distinguishing freelance relationships from employment relationships under the Employment Ordinance. The letter includes vital information such as engagement duration, project details, and relationship nature, while complying with the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance for handling personal information. This document type has become increasingly important with the growth of independent contracting in Hong Kong's business environment.
