Renewing your Hong Kong company is simple. Your annual renewal fee is due on the anniversary of your incorporation date, and we will send you an invoice one month in advance to ensure your company stays compliant and in good standing.

Taxation

How are Hong Kong companies taxed?
Hong Kong follows a territorial system of taxation, meaning that only profits arising in or derived from Hong Kong are generally subject to Hong Kong profits tax. Where a company qualifies for offshore tax treatment and its profits are not sourced in Hong Kong, those profits may not be subject to Hong Kong profits tax. For companies subject to Hong Kong profits tax, the current two-tiered rates are 8.25% on the first HKD 2 million of assessable profits and 16.5% on profits exceeding HKD 2 million.

Annual Compliance

How do I keep my Hong Kong company compliant?
To keep a Hong Kong company in good standing, it must renew its Business Registration Certificate and file its Annual Return (Form NAR1) each year. We will contact you approximately one month before your company's incorporation anniversary, guide you through the renewal process, and prepare and file the required documents on your behalf to ensure ongoing compliance.
Can Hong Kong companies become non-compliant?
Yes. A Hong Kong company can become non-compliant if it fails to meet its ongoing statutory obligations, such as renewing its Business Registration Certificate, filing the Annual Return (Form NAR1). Failure to meet these obligations may result in penalties, prosecution, or the company being struck off the Companies Register.
What happens if annual fees are not paid on time?
Late payment may result in penalties and, depending on the circumstances and applicable legislation, the company may eventually be struck off the register. Prompt action is recommended if a company has missed a renewal deadline.
