TheRegistration and Electoral Office (REO) (Chinese:選舉事務處)^[1] is adepartment under the jurisdiction of theConstitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau (CMAB) of theHong Kong Government.^[2] It is also an administrative support organisation of theElectoral Affairs Commission (EAC), which assists the implementation of the statutory rights under the Electoral Affairs Commission Ordinance.^[3]

The REO assists members of the public to register as electors, dividing constituencies, and formulating electoral regulations and guidelines forelection activities. The elections ofChief Executive,Election Committee,Legislative Council andDistrict Council are all managed by the office.^[4] However, the REO is a logistics department and has no decision-making power on the electoral policy as the decision-making power is vested in the EAC.

The REO is headed by the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), who is assisted by the Principal Electoral Officers (PEO) and the Chief Systems Manager (CSM). The head office is at the Treasury Building inCheung Sha Wan, with several other divisions at theMillennium City inKwun Tong andKowloonbay International Trade & Exhibition Centre inKowloon Bay.^[5]
