Company Re-domiciliation
Company re-domiciliation is the process of changing a company's place of incorporation from one jurisdiction to another. This can be done for a variety of reasons, such as to take advantage of a more favorable tax regime, to be closer to key markets, or to improve the company's reputation.
Hong Kong is a popular destination for company re-domiciliation due to its strong economy, stable political environment, and efficient legal system. Hong Kong also has a number of tax advantages, including a low corporate tax rate and a lack of capital gains tax.
To re-domicile a company to Hong Kong, the company must first apply to the Registrar of Companies. The application must be accompanied by a number of documents, including the company's constitution, a certificate of good standing from the company's original jurisdiction, and a solvency statement.
If the application is successful, the company will be issued a new certificate of incorporation and will be registered as a Hong Kong company. The company will then be required to de-register from its original jurisdiction.
The process of re-domiciling a company to Hong Kong can be complex and time-consuming, so it is important to seek professional advice.
Here are some of the benefits of re-domiciling a company to Hong Kong:
Favorable tax regime: Hong Kong has a low corporate tax rate of 16.5% and no capital gains tax.
