⚠️

⚠ Not All Pension Income is Tax-Free in HK

While MPF lump-sum withdrawals on retirement are generally not assessable to salaries tax, ongoing pension annuity payments, overseas pension income, and ORSO defined-benefit pensions can all create HK tax liabilities that many retirees overlook until they receive an IRD assessment.

주요 고민

다음과 같은 세무 문제로 어려움을 겪고 계신가요?

MPF vs ORSO Tax Treatment

MPF accrued benefits withdrawn on retirement are not taxable; but ORSO schemes and occupational pension payments may be partially assessable depending on the scheme structure.

⚠ Risk: Treating taxable ORSO pension as tax-free → IRD back-assessment

Overseas Pension Income

UK state pensions, US Social Security, and foreign occupational pensions received in HK may be assessable to HK salaries tax depending on source-of-income rules.

⚠ Risk: Failing to declare → interest and penalties on unpaid tax

MPF Voluntary Contribution Deductions

Employee voluntary contributions to MPF are deductible up to HKD 18,000/year — many retirees in the drawdown phase miss this pre-retirement optimisation window.

⚠ Risk: Missing deductions → higher tax in final working years

Post-Retirement Income Streams

Rental income, investment dividends, and part-time consulting in retirement can interact unexpectedly with pension payments to push you into a higher tax bracket.

⚠ Risk: Unplanned income combination → significant unexpected tax bill

Generally no. Accrued benefits withdrawn from MPF upon reaching the retirement age of 65 (or early retirement at 60) are not assessable to salaries tax under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance. However, the employer's voluntary contributions above the mandatory level may have different treatment depending on your scheme rules.
Potentially yes. If you are HK-resident and the pension relates to services previously rendered in the UK, it may be treated as employment income assessable to HK salaries tax. The HK-UK CDTA provides some relief but does not automatically exempt all UK pension income. We review your specific facts.
A Qualifying Deferred Annuity Policy (QDAP) premium deduction allows you to deduct up to HKD 60,000 per year from your assessable income. This is shared with the MPF Tax Deductible Voluntary Contribution (TVC) limit. If you have both, the combined deduction cap is HKD 60,000. This is one of HK's most valuable pre-retirement tax reliefs.
Part-time employment income is fully assessable to salaries tax. It is added to any assessable pension income and assessed together. The good news is that all your personal allowances (basic allowance HKD 132,000, age 55+ allowance if applicable) still reduce your assessable income, and progressive rates mean lower income is taxed at lower rates.
Under HK salaries tax, married couples can elect for joint or separate assessment each year and choose whichever is more beneficial. We model both options annually. The married person's allowance (HKD 264,000) is available under joint assessment, which can be significantly more beneficial than dual single allowances depending on your respective incomes.
