The main function of the Guangdong Economic and Trade Office is to promote economic and trade ties and strengthen cooperation between the five provinces and autonomous regions of Fujian, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and Hainan and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. The Guangdong Economic and Trade Office also set up an Immigration Division to provide emergency support services to Hong Kong residents in the five provinces and autonomous regions. [1]

In 2014, with the Economic and Trade Office in Wuhan coming into use, Jiangxi Province was no longer served by the Economic and Trade Office in Guangdong.[ citation needed ]
