These are all the crimes Hong Kong is considering extraditing people for under a new law

The proposed amendment would allow, for the first time since Hong Kong’s handover in 1997, extraditions from the city to mainland China on a case-by-case basis. Critics say the law would be “legalized kidnapping,” a reference to the Hong Kong booksellers who vanished in 2015 and later turned up in the control of Chinese authorities in the mainland. (The law could also be used by other jurisdictions that don’t have agreements with Hong Kong to request fugitives.)

After pushback from Hong Kong’s business community and pro-China lawmakers, nine categories of crimes were removed from the initial list of 46. The crimes removed from the list were mostly white-collar commercial crimes. In addition, offences have to be punishable by seven years or more in prison, up from the previous level of three years, to be extraditable. 

Below is a list of the 37 categories of crime that remain in the proposed amendment (the nine that were struck out from the original total of 46 are also marked below):
