Frequently Asked Questions

What is the offshore profits tax exemption in Hong Kong?
Hong Kong operates a territorial tax system โ€” only profits arising in or derived from Hong Kong are subject to profits tax. If a company's profits are genuinely sourced outside Hong Kong (offshore), it may apply to the IRD for an offshore profits tax exemption. This is a legitimate tax planning strategy that requires careful documentation.
Can a Hong Kong company benefit from tax treaties?
Yes. Hong Kong has concluded Comprehensive Avoidance of Double Taxation Agreements (CDTAs) with over 45 jurisdictions, including China, the UK, the US, Singapore, and many others. These treaties can significantly reduce withholding taxes on dividends, interest, and royalties.

HK$380KAnnual Tax Saving
Challenge

A UK e-commerce group with a HK entity was paying full 16.5% profits tax on all HK-sourced income without utilising available offshore claim provisions for genuinely offshore transactions.

Our Solution

Echo Olesen Global conducted a detailed analysis of the group's transaction flows, identified qualifying offshore income, prepared the offshore profits tax claim documentation, and submitted the claim to the IRD with supporting evidence.

Outcome

Offshore claim approved for 65% of profits. Effective tax rate reduced from 16.5% to approximately 5.8%. Annual tax saving of approximately HK$380,000.

A Canadian family office needed to restructure its Asian investment holdings to optimise for Hong Kong's two-tier profits tax regime and reduce overall tax exposure across the group.

Our Solution

We designed a restructured holding arrangement utilising Hong Kong's two-tier profits tax (8.25% on first HK$2M), prepared the necessary documentation, and coordinated with the family's Canadian advisors.

Outcome

Restructuring completed within 3 months. The family office achieved an estimated 22% reduction in effective tax rate on Asian investment income.
