Answers

Good to know

Wan Chai. Call +85228511477 · cs@cheungandsiu.com.

FAQ: Do I need to come to Hong Kong to form a company?

No. For both HK and offshore (Anguilla/BVI) company formation, you do not need to travel to HK. Fill in the formation form online, sign the documents and return them, and the firm handles the rest. Completion typically takes about 2 weeks (excluding document transit time).

FAQ: What are the minimum requirements to form a HK limited company?

At least one director and one shareholder (need not be HK residents), a resident company secretary, and a HK registered office. The firm can provide both the company secretary and registered office services.

FAQ: What is the total cost to form a HK company in the first year?

Core first-year costs are: formation fee HK$6,500 + government business registration fee HK$2,350 + annual company secretarial fee HK$2,800. Optional: nominee director/shareholder HK$10,000/year; registered office from HK$2,500/year. Audit and bookkeeping fees are additional and quoted separately.

FAQ: What offshore jurisdictions does the firm support for company formation?

Anguilla, British Virgin Islands (BVI), and other offshore countries.

FAQ: What is the HK profits tax rate?

8.25% on the first HK$2 million of assessable profits and 16.5% on the remainder. There is no VAT and no tax on dividends or interest in HK.

FAQ: Can my HK company claim offshore income status to avoid profits tax?

Yes, if the company's operations are fully carried out outside HK. The claim can be submitted earliest 18 months after incorporation along with audited accounts and a profits tax return. The firm is experienced in offshore claims and has assisted many clients successfully.

FAQ: Can the shareholders be anonymous for a HK company?

The firm can act as nominee shareholder and director, holding shares on trust with a Declaration of Trust stamped by the IRD. This means no member of the public (except the IRD, which is bound to secrecy) can identify the ultimate owner. Annual fee: HK$10,000.

FAQ: Do offshore (BVI/Anguilla) company shareholders need to be public?

No. Offshore company shareholders can be anonymous, and such companies do not require a business registration to open HK bank accounts.

FAQ: Which banks can you assist with for HK bank account opening?

The firm is an approved qualified professional intermediary for HSBC, Hang Seng Bank and Standard Chartered Bank. They also assist with OCBC Wing Hang Bank and Currenxie (a licensed HK Money Service Operator). A preliminary due diligence check is offered before formation.

FAQ: What are the annual reporting requirements for a HK company?

Three requirements: (1) Annual return to the Companies Registry within 42 days of the incorporation anniversary; (2) Employer's return to the IRD in April each year; (3) Profits tax return with audited accounts to the IRD annually.

FAQ: What is the audit fee?

Starting from HK$4,000 (US$515). The exact fee is quoted individually before commencement, based on transaction volume. Bookkeeping fees are also on a time-cost basis.
