The British Consulate General Hong Kong is the sole governmental agency currently tasked with offering professional formal English-to-Cantonese name translation services to British officials. No similar services are offered by UK diplomatic missions within the Greater China area.

This practice has its origin in the distasteful translation of the name of the 16th Colonial Governor of Hong Kong,and the UK government keeps this tradition alive even after the transfer of Hong Kong's sovereignty to China in 1997.
