  • A corporation, firm or organisation holding a Corporate Membership is entitled to register one Corporate Nominee, who will enjoy the same privileges as those of the Club's individual Full Members in using Members’ racing and dining facilities at the Racecourses and leisure facilities and amenities at the clubhouses and may also use the facilities in Beijing Clubhouse and HKJC Shenzhen Centre subject to the reciprocal arrangement between the Club and the Beijing Clubhouse.
  • A Corporate Member may pass on privileges of Membership from one full-time employee to another by changing the nominee, such as in cases of change in personnel or relocation of the existing nominee.

  • The Corporate Nominee may apply for Supplementary Cards for his or her spouse and unmarried children between the ages of 8 and 21# to use the Members’ facilities on the account of the Corporate Nominee under the Supplementary Card Scheme.
