MPF and TVC: The Tax-Free Retirement Strategy Most HK Employees Are Missing
The Mandatory Provident Fund is more than a legal obligation — it is Hong Kong's most tax-efficient savings vehicle. Tax-deductible Voluntary Contributions allow an additional HK,000/year deduction that most employees never claim. For employers, MPF compliance failures attract MPFA enforcement penalties starting at HK,000. We ensure both employees and employers maximise benefits and stay fully compliant.

The Mandatory Provident Fund is more than a legal obligation — it is Hong Kong's most tax-efficient savings vehicle.

⚠ Employer Warning — MPFA Enforcement: Late Contributions Start at HK,000 Penalty
Employers must remit both employee and employer contributions by the 10th day of the month following each contribution period. MPFA enforcement penalties start at HK,000 per employee per late payment period and escalate significantly. Criminal prosecution under the MPF Schemes Ordinance can result in fines up to HK0,000 and imprisonment for up to 4 years.
您是否正面對以下稅務問題？
Incorrect Contribution Calculations
Many employers calculate contributions on gross pay rather than "relevant income" (which excludes severance, long service payment, gratuities, and reimbursements). Both under- and over-contribution trigger MPFA enforcement.
TVC Deduction Never Claimed by Employees
The HK,000/year TVC tax deduction is one of the most underutilised deductions in HK. Many employees don't know TVC accounts exist. At 17% marginal rate, this costs HK,200/year.
Late Employee Enrolment
New employees must be enrolled in an MPFA-registered scheme within 60 days. Many SMEs miss the enrolment deadline, triggering MPFA enforcement and back-contributions.
Wrong Scheme Selection for TVC
TVC must be placed in a designated TVC account — not your regular mandatory account. Different schemes have very different fund options, fee structures, and platforms.
適合對象
MPF contribution calculations, timely remittance, new employee enrolment, and MPFA compliance audits. We ensure your payroll is fully MPFA-compliant.
Calculating "relevant income" correctly, managing the 60-day enrolment grace period, and maintaining MPFA-compliant records for all employee categories.
We advise on opening a TVC account, selecting the right MPF scheme and fund options, and making annual contributions before 31 March.
Self-employed individuals aged 18–64 have mandatory MPF contribution obligations. We calculate the correct amount and ensure compliance.
