The Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB), a Government-subvented body, was founded on 1 April 2001 under the HKTB Ordinance. It was reconstituted from and replaced the Hong Kong Tourist Association (HKTA), which was established by Government Ordinance in 1957.

The key responsibilities of the HKTB are to market and promote Hong Kong as a destination worldwide. In its marketing and promotional roles, the HKTB works closely with the Tourism Commission, travel-trade partners, and other partners directly and indirectly related to tourism, to position Hong Kong as one of the world's leading tourism destinations. In doing so, it promotes Hong Kong as a vibrant, international city, the Events and Culinary Capital of Asia, and a leading global business, transportation and communications hub.

The HKTB's mission is to maximise the social and economic contribution that tourism makes to the community of Hong Kong, and to combine Hong Kong's position as a unique, world-class and most desired destination.
