MAINLAND JUDGMENTS (RECIPROCAL
ENFORCEMENT) ORDINANCE

Ord. No. 9 of 2008
A355


9. Cases in which only some provisions of Mainland judgments are registrable

If, on an application for registration of a Mainland judgment, it appears to the Court of First Instance that the judgment is in respect of different matters and that some, but not all, of the provisions of the judgment would, if contained in separate Mainland judgments that are the subjects of applications for registration under section 5(1), satisfy the requirements specified in section 5(2)(a) to (e), the judgment, when registered, shall only be registered in respect of those provisions but not in respect of any other provisions contained in the judgment.

10. Mainland judgments partly satisfied

If it has been proved that, at the date of an application for registration of a Mainland judgment, the judgment has been partly satisfied, the judgment, when registered, shall only be registered in respect of the balance remaining payable at that date.

11. Mainland judgments expressed in currency other than Hong Kong currency

Where the sum payable under a Mainland judgment is expressed in a currency other than Hong Kong currency, the judgment, when registered, shall be registered as if it were a judgment for such sum in Hong Kong currency as, on the basis of the rate of exchange prevailing at the date of registration, is equivalent to the sum so payable.

12. Interest, costs, etc., to be included in registration of Mainland judgments

In addition to the sum of money payable under a Mainland judgment, the judgment, when registered, shall be registered for—

(a) any interest which by the law of the Mainland shall become due under the judgment up to the time of registration and any costs duly certified by the original court for the judgment; and
(b) any reasonable costs of and incidental to registration of the judgment, including the costs of obtaining a copy of the judgment duly sealed by the original court.
