==Postal history== {{unreferenced section|date=December 2013}} {{main|Postage stamps and postal history of Hong Kong}} During the [[Colonial Hong Kong|colonial era]], Hong Kong produced postage stamps simply bearing the name ''Hong Kong'', printed alongside the likenesses (in profile) of the reigning monarchs of the United Kingdom, or royal symbols (for example, "[[royal cypher|EIIR]]"). Since [[Transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong|Hong Kong's transfer of sovereignty to China]] in 1997, stamps issued have borne the name "Hong Kong, China". British Hong Kong postage stamps are no longer valid for prepayment of postage and cannot be repurchased by the Post Office.
