Details about the amount of assistance and the eligibility for all of the schemes can be found at the Hong Kong Trade Development Council website - www.hktdc.com

Other financial incentives for UK investors are the low taxation policies, which include:
 
  • 15% salary tax
  • No sales tax or VAT
  • No dividends tax
  • No gains tax
  • No customs tariffs on goods imported into Hong Kong (with the exception of a few goods such as spirits and tobacco)

Private Finance

When seeking private finance, it is advised that you have a coherent business plan and that you have planned your enterprise thoroughly. It is often a good idea to consult an account prior to approaching lenders.

Hong Kong has a highly developed banking and financial system and all of the usual banking services, such as the provision of credit, are available.
