Company Formation Tax Planning

Setting up a Hong Kong company? The decisions you make at incorporation — share structure, director compensation mix, holding company layers — directly impact your tax bill for years to come.

⚠️

⚠ Wrong Structure = Years of Overpaying Tax

Most founders focus on incorporation cost, not tax structure. A poor setup — wrong share classes, no holding layer, suboptimal remuneration mix — can cost tens of thousands extra every year.

よくあるお悩み

以下の税務問題でお困りではありませんか？

Share Structure Decisions

Ordinary vs preference shares, multiple share classes, shareholder agreements — each affects dividend taxation and future equity raises.

⚠ Risk: Inflexible structure → costly restructuring later

Salary vs Dividend Mix

How should founder compensation be split between salary (deductible) and dividends (no withholding tax in HK)?

⚠ Risk: Wrong mix → unnecessary salaries tax or MPF costs

Holding Company Need

Should you operate directly or through a holding structure? BVI, Cayman, or pure HK holding?

⚠ Risk: No holding layer → trapped profits, no offshore claim

Profits Tax Registration Timing

When does your liability to file begin? Missing early-stage obligations creates penalties.

⚠ Risk: Late registration → penalties from first profitable year

Not always, but often beneficial. A holding company allows cleaner profit extraction, potential offshore income claims under the FSIE regime, and a cleaner structure for future investors or exit. We model the cost-benefit for your specific situation.
HK uses a two-tier system: 8.25% on the first HKD 2 million of assessable profits, and 16.5% above that (for corporations). This applies from your first profitable year.
You must notify IRD within 1 month of commencing business (i.e., first transaction). IRD will issue a profits tax return typically in your first or second year of assessment.
The territorial source principle means profits from genuinely offshore operations may not be taxable in HK. Post-FSIE (from 1 Jan 2023), passive income rules have changed significantly. We analyse your specific operation and advise on legitimate offshore claims.
This is a key tax planning question. A higher salary reduces company profits tax (deductible expense) but increases personal salaries tax. The optimal split depends on your profit level, personal allowances, and MPF considerations. We model this annually.
BIR Form 1 is the notification to IRD that your company has commenced business. It must be submitted within 1 month of commencement. Failing to notify IRD on time can result in penalties and interest on unpaid tax.
