FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

When will my company receive its first Profits Tax return?
The IRD typically issues the first return approximately 18 months after incorporation. We track your filing schedule and manage all returns.
What is an offshore income claim?
If your HK company earns all revenue from outside HK, you may apply for offshore income tax exemption. We assess eligibility and prepare the full claim.
What happens if I miss a filing deadline?
Late filing automatically attracts a surcharge and may result in an estimated assessment. We proactively manage all filing deadlines.
Does HK have a general anti-avoidance rule?
Yes — Section 61A of the IRO gives the IRD broad powers to counteract arrangements lacking commercial substance primarily entered into for tax benefit.
