企业家注意：香港有一个税收友好的法律，特别有利于中小企业。这是香港的政府预算在为您省钱。你不相信我？当香港出现政府预算盈余（收入比支出多）时，您的部分税款将被免除。豁免是不可能的；这是您税款的 75%，最高可达 20,000 港元。
让我们看一个例子。如果您的公司盈利为 100,000 港元，那么您的业务的税费通常为 100,000 港元*16.5%= 16,500 港元。但由于当年有盈余，免除75%的税款，因此您的实际应缴税款仅为$16,500港元*25%=$4,125港元。
听起来好得令人难以置信？但是真的变好，因为您可以预期政府预算经常盈余。事实上，香港政府已经十四年没有出现财政赤字了。此外，政府储备稳步增加至超过 3 万亿美元。所以香港的免税政策，每年一定会为您和您的公司省下一大笔钱！

Tax Saving Tip #4: Hong Kong Surplus Waiver
ATTENTION BUSINESS OWNER: Hong Kong’s government budget has consistently saved you money. You don’t believe me? Well, Hong Kong has a tax-friendly law that particularly benefits SME’s. When Hong Kong runs a government budget surplus (brings in more money than they spend) part of your tax is waived. And the waiver is no laughable amount; it is 75 percent of your taxes up to HK$20,000.
Let’s look at an example. If your limited company turns a profit of HK$100,000 then normally the taxes your business would be HK$100,000*16.5%= HK$16,500. But due to a surplus that year 75% of the tax is waived, thus your actual taxes due would only be HK$16,500*25%= HK$4,125.
Sounds too good to be true? It gets even better because you can expect a government budget surplus regularly. In fact, the Hong Kong government has not run a budget deficit in fourteen years. Further, the government reserves have steadily increased to over three trillion dollars. The tax waiver in Hong Kong will be sure to save you and your company a nice lump of money each year!
At Centre O, we can handle your accounting & auditing. Let’s see if you can also benefit from the Hong Kong tax waiver. For further details, please contact us at sales@centreo.hk.

Tax Saving Tip #3: No Taxes on Investments
After years of intelligent and lucrative investing, you decide it is time to take your earnings out of your portfolio. But before that money reaches your pocket, you are disappointed to find that a huge slice of your would-be earnings has been gobbled up by various taxes. You realize your investment was hardly worth what you thought it was.
This story is probably a familiar one. Although, this story in Hong Kong does not exist! Hong Kong does not tax your capital gains. The earnings you achieve from selling an investment after it has increased in value is not taxed in Hong Kong. Moreover, dividends from Hong Kong companies- earnings paid out to shareholders- are also not taxed.
Thanks to these tax-free laws, your portfolio in Hong Kong could be worth a lot more! At Centre O, we can act as your tax representative to determine your company profit tax. Contact us at sales@centreo.hk for more details.

节税秘诀#2：香港盈余豁免
为您的企业提供的另一个节税技巧！
在香港，我们都知道一件事——租金昂贵，真的真的很贵。对许多人来说，香港的租金可以吃掉他们每月工资的大部分。幸运的是，香港有一项为这里的企业家提供救济的政策。
在香港，公司董事可以用租金开支从应税营业收入中扣除。这是什么意思呢？营业税，在香港称为利得税，从年度利润中扣除一部分。您的利润是通过计算当年的收入并减去公司产生的费用来计算的。香港非常独特地允许董事的租金作为业务费用扣除，从而使政府可以征税的利润变小。由于租金如此之高，这项津贴可以节省数千美元的税收。
那么，为什么政府会有这样的规定呢？香港的政策制定者推断，为了在香港开展业务，您将不得不在某个地方居住并支付租金来经营该业务，可悲的是，很少有其他国家遵循这一推理。
希望现在在香港付房租不那么痛苦！在 Center O，我们可以为您安排年度会计和审计。 sales@centreo.hk 与联系我们，了解更多详情。

Tax Saving Tip #2: Hong Kong Rent Write-Off
Another tax saving tip for your business!
We all know one thing for certain in Hong Kong – rent is expensive. Really really expensive. For many, Hong Kong rent can eat up most of their monthly paycheck. Luckily, Hong Kong has a policy providing relief for entrepreneurs here.
In Hong Kong, the directors of a company can use their rent expense to deduct from their taxable business income. What does this all mean? Business taxes, called Profits Tax in Hong Kong, take a portion of yearly profits. Your profit is calculated by taking revenue for the year and subtracting expenses the company incurred. Hong Kong very uniquely allows the directors’ rent to be deducted as a business expense, thus making the profit the government can tax smaller. Since rent is so high, this allowance can amount to thousands of dollars in tax savings.
So, why does the government have this rule? Hong Kong policymakers reason that in order to run a business in Hong Kong, you are going to have to live and pay rent somewhere to run that business. Sadly, few other countries follow this reasoning.
Hopefully, paying rent in Hong Kong is now a little less painful! At Centre O, we can arrange the yearly accounting & auditing for you. Contact us at sales@centreo.hk for more details.

Tax Saving Tip #1: Hong Kong “Carryforward”
Who likes paying taxes? Nobody. Fortunately, Hong Kong has one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the world. What’s more, there are several unique ways you can save on your company’s tax bill.
Being wildly profitable in the first few years of business is often far-fetched with getting your name out there and all the startup costs. Even some of the most successful businesses like FedEx, Amazon, and Uber had the same story. To help with that, Hong Kong has laws that use past losses to help you pay less in taxes in the future.
This idea is called carryforward. Carryforward means if your business lost money in the past, that amount can be used to lower your profits tax in the future. For example, if your business earned a profit of HK$50,000 the second year of operation, but your business lost HK$50,000 in your first year, then your business won’t pay a dollar in taxes. Thanks to carryforward, previous losses can be deducted from future profits. In this scenario, your taxable profit is zero (50k current profit – 50k past losses), and so you’ll pay nothing in taxes.
Many other countries also have carryforward policies, but what makes Hong Kong’s policy unique is no restrictions on the time or amount. Meaning, no matter how many years it is before you turn profitable nor the dollar figure of the losses accumulated is restricted to carryforward in Hong Kong. The same can’t be said for countries like the Netherlands, Spain, the US, France and many many more. So, when your business does become wildly profitable in Hong Kong, enjoy some extra cash!

What are the running costs from year 2 after the first year of Company Incorporation?
节税秘诀#1：香港盈余豁免
没有人喜欢纳税。幸运的是，香港是世界上公司税率最低的国家之一。更重要的是，您可以通过几种独特的方式来节省公司的税单。
在业务的最初几年获得巨额利润通常是牵强附会，因为要在那里获得名声和所有启动成本。即使是联邦快递、亚马逊和优步等一些最成功的企业也有同样的问题。为了解决这个问题，香港制定了法律，利用过去的损失来帮助您在未来减少纳税。
这个想法被称为结转。结转意味着如果您的企业过去亏损，该金额可用于在未来降低您的利得税。例如，如果您的企业在运营的第二年赚取了 50,000 港元的利润，但您的企业在第一年亏损了 50,000 港元，那么您的企业将无需缴纳一美元的税款。由于结转，以前的损失可以从未来的利润中扣除。在这种情况下，您的应税利润为零（当前利润5万 –过去亏损 5万），因此您无需缴纳任何税款。
许多其他国家也有结转政策，但香港政策的独特之处在于没有时间和金额限制。这意味着，无论多少年您才开始盈利，累积亏损的美元数字也仅限于在香港结转。对于荷兰、西班牙、美国、法国等许多国家来说，情况并非如此。因此，当您的业务在香港获得巨额利润时，请享受一些额外的现金！
Center O 很乐意担任您的税务代表，让您从这条规则中受益！ sales@centreo.hk 与联系我们，了解更多详情。
