Jurisdiction overview: Hong Kong

Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China that operates under the “one country, two systems” principle, giving it significant autonomy in legal, economic, and financial matters. Its legal system is based on English common law, ensuring a high level of predictability, investor protection, and commercial freedom.

Consistently ranked among the world’s top jurisdictions for ease of doing business, Hong Kong offers a stable regulatory environment, low taxation, and a world-class financial infrastructure. The region does not impose tax on foreign-sourced income, making it especially attractive for international entrepreneurs, holding structures, and trading companies.

Its strategic location in the heart of Asia, direct access to mainland China, and strong global reputation make Hong Kong one of the most desirable jurisdictions for launching and scaling cross-border businesses.

Main features of the jurisdiction

  • Legal system: independent, stable, transparent. Based on English common law.
  • Currency: Hong Kong dollar (HKD), freely convertible
  • Taxation: territorial principle - 0% tax on profits earned outside Hong Kong. Profits made within Hong Kong are taxed at 8.25-16.5%.
  • Reporting: Annual filing of financial statements and audit required
  • Privacy: Directors and shareholders are held on a public register, but nominees may be used
  • Regulator: Companies Registry (CR), Hong Kong

Hong Kong is ideal for international trade, digital companies, holding companies and globally managed entities.
