Stop Paying More Than You Legally Owe. HK Tax Planning That Actually Works.
Most high-income earners and business owners in Hong Kong overpay their tax by HK$100,000–HK$500,000+ every year — simply because they have no proactive plan. Our HKICPA-certified advisors build personalised, forward-looking strategies that legally minimise your tax burden before year-end, not after.

⚠ Critical Planning Alert — Personal Assessment Has a 6-Year Retroactive Window
Personal Assessment must be elected annually on BIR60 — it is NOT automatic. Many salaried employees and business owners earning over HK$500K miss this election every year, overpaying by HK$8,000–HK$80,000 annually. You can retroactively elect Personal Assessment for up to 6 prior assessment years under s.41(3) of the IRO. TVC contributions for the current year must be made before 31 March.
Sehen Sie sich mit diesen Steuerproblemen konfrontiert?
No Personal Assessment Election
Personal Assessment (s.41 IRO) consolidates all income and can cap your effective rate at 15%. It must be elected annually and is never applied automatically.
TVC Contributions Not Maximised
Tax-deductible Voluntary Contributions allow an additional HK$60,000/year deduction. At the 17% marginal rate, this saves HK$10,200/year. Yet most employees have never opened a TVC account.
Suboptimal Married Couple Filing
Dual-income couples often fail to model joint vs. separate assessment. Depending on the income gap, one approach can save HK$8,000–HK$80,000/year over the other.
Reactive Rather Than Proactive Planning
Most taxpayers only think about tax after the year ends — when it's too late to adjust income timing, make TVC contributions, or restructure deductions.
Für wen dieser Service ist
At this income level, every unclaimed deduction and unelected allowance translates directly into significant tax savings. We build a comprehensive annual plan covering all 7 deduction categories.
We model your combined tax position under joint assessment, separate assessment, and Personal Assessment to identify the most favourable annual option.
We optimise the split between director salary, dividends, and retained profits to minimise combined corporate and personal tax.
Timing of arrival/departure, offshore workday claims, and DTA treaty relief can dramatically reduce HK salaries tax liability.
Discretionary bonuses can push marginal income into the 17% band. We advise on TVC contributions, charitable donations, and timing strategies.

TVC & Qualifying Annuity Maximisation
We advise on optimal TVC contribution amount (up to HK$60,000/year), timing, and MPF scheme selection to maximise the deduction.

Year-End Income Timing Strategies
Bonuses, director fees, and investment income timing around 31 March can shift your tax bracket significantly. We advise on optimal timing.
