However, on May 8, 1943, during the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, an official seal reading "Housing Registration Office of the Governor-General's Office for the Occupied Territory of Hong Kong" was stamped on the document. This kind of pre-war property lease contract that was re-verified by the Japanese occupation government is relatively rare.
