[Update]: Turns out this is a new feature in MIUI 10 8.10.18 global beta.

To enable go to settings->notifications->show incoming notifications

Please ignore the below.

-------------------------------------------------------------

This is my first post, please don't mind any amateur mistakes.

I was going through the settings and found that turning off MIUI optimisation in developer settings will enable notification icons getting displayed in clock region.

I have tested this in MIUI 10 8.10.18 beta version. It'll be good if few people can test this in stable version and post the results.

Procedure

1) Enable developer options by clicking MIUI version 7 times.
2) go to Additional settings->Developer options.
3) Scroll to the end and disable MIUI optimisation.

Optional
1) Disable notify about high risk features. This will turn off annoying notifications stating to enable MIUI Optimisation.
2) Set the display size to small for better looks.

Below are the screenshots of the settings and the notification icons getting displayed.

Please feel free to comment your opinions.

Cons:
Need to provide app permissions again for few apps.
Some of the UI won't look good (limited to app info and settings app) trade-off

Already did it , but still show clock instead of notifications icons?

and also unable to remove high risk feature notification.
It'll display when you unlock the phone for few seconds.

Did you enable developer options? Strange i was able to disable it.
Which version of MIUI are you at?

I'm on 8.10.18 and notifications are displayed normally inside clock region. I didn't fiddle around with any settings, just updated and set up my own region (Croatia), everything is working as it should finally.
