Accessibility Testing in Kwun Tong, Hong Kong, Done by Hand

Audits for Kwun Tong against the standard that actually binds you in Hong Kong.

The short answer for Kwun Tong

Roughly 673,000 people live in Kwun Tong, one of Hong Kong's 18 districts. Hong Kong's government website guidelines date from 1999 and reference WCAG 2.0, and the Disability Discrimination Ordinance sits underneath covering services generally.

The district is an administrative unit rather than a legislative one, so nothing about the duty changes as you move between them. What changes is the density of the businesses inside them.

So here is what we do about it. We work your Kwun Tong site against all 55 WCAG 2.2 A and AA rules by hand, then a professional blind screen-reader user runs your real journeys while we record where they stop. WCAG 2.2 contains everything the standard above asks for, so one audit answers it with room to spare. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it.

Inside an audit for a site in Kwun Tong

Start with the honest part. The audit is the same in Kwun Tong as it is anywhere, because WCAG does not change at a border. What changes is which law is watching and what it costs to fail, and the section above settles that.

The work itself runs in three passes. A machine finds the failures a machine can prove. A human works every one of the 55 A and AA rules by hand. Then a professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, the way your customers would. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it, drawn from our free library of 432 guides.

None of the reference sits behind a form, either. Every number below counts pages you can go and read right now, free, whether you ever buy an audit or not.

The honest limit

And an audit is evidence, not a legal opinion. We tell you what fails, who it stops, and what closes it. Whether that satisfies a regulator or a court in Kwun Tong is a question for your lawyer, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise.

Straight answers for Kwun Tong

My site is in Kwun Tong. Does that change what you test?

No. WCAG is the same standard everywhere, so the testing is identical wherever you are. What changes is which law is watching and what failing it costs, and that is what the law section on this page settles.

What law am I actually answering to in Kwun Tong?

Hong Kong guidelines is the one that reach Kwun Tong first, and each has its own page here covering what it asks for, who it lands on, and how it gets enforced. Sell into more than one market and more than one of them can reach you at the same time.

Should I be publishing an accessibility statement here?

No law that reaches Kwun Tong names one in our library, so nothing forces you to publish a statement. You can still publish one anyway, and our free generator will write it from what the audit found.

What am I paying, and what turnaround do I get?

A Rapid Audit is $499 for 10 pages, with the report in 5 business days. A Standard Audit is $1,499 for 25 pages in 10 business days. Once your team has fixed things, the re-audit is half price within 3 months.

Who does the human half of the testing?

Yes, on every audit. A professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, and we write down where they stop. That is the pass no scanner can run.
