Offshore company FAQ

Is an offshore company always tax-free?
No. Hong Kong taxes by the source of the profits: profits arising in Hong Kong pay profits tax, 8.25% on the first HK$2,000,000 and 16.5% after that. An offshore profits claim has to be supported by the facts and by documents, and foreign income such as dividends, interest and disposal gains is covered by the foreign-sourced income exemption (FSIE) regime when it is received in Hong Kong (source: Inland Revenue Department). Tell us how your business actually runs before you set one up.
Does an offshore company doing business in Hong Kong need business registration?
Yes. A company carrying on business in Hong Kong, an offshore company included, has to apply for business registration (source: Inland Revenue Department). We can also handle the registration of a non-Hong Kong company.
Which place is the cheapest?
The lowest incorporation fee is Britain at HK$6,900, then Belize at HK$7,300, Delaware in the United States at HK$7,600, and Seychelles and Samoa at HK$7,800. The lowest annual maintenance fee is Delaware at HK$5,800.
How much is payable each year?
The annual maintenance fee depends on the place, from HK$5,800 (Delaware) to HK$22,000 (the Cayman Islands). See the table above.
