Entry route
International Mathematical Olympiad Hong Kong Preliminary Selection Contest → training arrangements and subsequent team selection.
How to enter
Follow HKAGE’s annual notice. In 2026 it provided school and student submission routes, both requiring the principal’s signature and school stamp. This is the named IMO preliminary-selection contest, not any unrelated competition bearing “Hong Kong” or “IMO” in its title. The 2026 preliminary has finished. Watch for the next annual notice.

For cross-border schooling, home education or national-team eligibility, read the shared eligibility guide and obtain the national organiser’s ruling.
Past papers and solutions
HKAGE’s annual preliminary-selection page contains earlier question papers and suggested solutions. The question files are bilingual and the listed solutions are in English. Check the year in the archive row rather than assuming every file belongs to the page’s headline year.
Previous results
HKAGE competition result notice covers the domestic programme. For international appearances, medals and contestant records, use Hong Kong in the official IMO archive. A national-round award and an IMO medal describe different achievements.
