With AIcountant, company registration typically takes 1-3 business days. Our digital processes and close collaboration with the Companies Registry ensure fast processing. Once all required documents are received, we can usually complete registration within 24 hours.

Hong Kong company registration requires: (1) Passport or ID copies of all directors and shareholders, (2) Proof of address (utility bill or bank statement from the last 3 months), (3) Proposed company name, and (4) Description of business nature. Non-residents may need to provide additional documents.

Yes, every Hong Kong company must have a registered office address, but it doesn't need to be where you actually work. AIcountant provides registered address services from just HK$199/month, satisfying legal requirements while allowing you to work from anywhere.

Hong Kong companies must: (1) File an annual return with the Companies Registry (within 42 days of the anniversary date), (2) Renew the business registration certificate, (3) Hold an annual general meeting, (4) Maintain proper accounting records, and (5) File profits tax returns. Our company secretary service can handle all of these for you.

Yes! Hong Kong allows foreigners to 100% own a company. There are no nationality restrictions for directors or shareholders, and you don't need to be a Hong Kong resident to register a company here. You need at least one director (who can also be the shareholder).

Hong Kong adopts a territorial source principle of taxation with highly competitive rates: Profits Tax (8.25% on the first HK$2M profit, 16.5% thereafter), no VAT/GST, no capital gains tax, no dividend tax, and no withholding tax on dividends. Only profits arising in or derived from Hong Kong are taxable.
