0% Tax in Hong Kong — Is It Possible?

Yes — through the territorial tax system, only Hong Kong-sourced income is taxed. If your business is operated entirely offshore (Offshore Claim), you can achieve an effective tax rate of 0%. Additionally, there is no capital gains tax and no dividend tax. This makes Hong Kong ideal as a personal holding or for international e-commerce businesses looking to reinvest profits tax-free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to travel to Hong Kong?
No. The entire incorporation is 100% remote. We handle all authority visits on-site.
How quickly can I open a bank account?
With our support, typically 5–15 business days after incorporation. We recommend Airwallex and Aspire for fast multi-currency accounts or OCBC Hong Kong or OCBC Singapore for traditional banking.
What is a TCSP and why does it matter?
TCSP stands for Trust and Company Service Provider — a license issued by the Hong Kong government. Only licensed providers may legally conduct company formations in Hong Kong. We are TCSP-licensed.
Can I use PayPal and other payment providers?
Yes, Hong Kong offers excellent access to payment providers such as PayPal, Airwallex, and Oceanpayment. We are an official partner of these providers. If we open the account, you will be assigned to a dedicated relationship manager at PayPal, Airwallex, and Oceanpayment.
Is 0% tax possible in Hong Kong?
Yes — through the territorial tax system, only Hong Kong-sourced income is taxed. If your business is operated entirely offshore (Offshore Claim), you can achieve an effective tax rate of 0%.

Territorial tax system — what does that mean?
In Hong Kong, only income sourced in Hong Kong is taxed. Foreign income is tax-free — ideal for international e-commerce and service businesses.
What does incorporation with Strasia cost?
That depends on the structure you choose, banking and ongoing support — a blanket price would not help you. In the free initial consultation we establish what you actually need, and you then receive a binding fixed-price offer: one figure, all government fees shown transparently, no follow-up charges.
How long does company formation in Hong Kong take?
Registering the Limited with the Companies Registry usually takes just a few days. Including bank account support, plan around one to two weeks in total.
What do I need to incorporate in Hong Kong as a foreigner?
Passport, proof of address and the company details — nothing more. No practical minimum capital, no travel required; as a TCSP-licensed provider we handle everything remotely.
