    Hong Kong - EMIs & Tax

    Happy new year to everyone. Regarding the public registry, yes we have a nominee in place for this. As for taxes, no issue with paying full taxes in my home country on income received. The issue is protecting entity names. Seems more complicated that I had imagined.

    Hong Kong - EMIs & Tax

    @Sols and @moneyhoney- You make a good point which I hastily forgot to think about. Right now every time we have an issue we simply show our annual reports, agreements etc and all is ok. With such a setup as I proposed we would definitely face issues with large sums since we wouldn’t be able to...

    Hong Kong - EMIs & Tax

    Hong Kong - are things easier now?

    Hong Kong Incorporation

    Ok noted that is what I thought. Not doing business in Singapore solely refers to a physical onshore presence correct? For example, would receiving funds from a client based in Singapore via their Singapore bank account for services we render while we are in Hong Kong complicate matters and...

    Hong Kong Incorporation

    Speedster - Thanks By the way, is it possible to add a nominee shareholder and director at a later date post company registration and bank account opening? Placing them before the bank account opening will definitely impact the KYC and bank account opening process. Thanks

    Hong Kong Incorporation

    thanks very much. Its a bit surprising everyone is relying on EMI's. Maybe I am being overly risk averse but holding 100,000usd+ on an EMI doesnt feel as safe as in a real bank.

    Hong Kong Incorporation

    I was thinking things would be much easier during COVID - up until the face to face verification meeting that is. Afterall they are losing tons of business I would think they would be keen on someone actually doing well during it and depositing funds at a time like this. Also was in HK last...
