Nature of offshore companies

Offshore companies can conduct their business activities outside the countries where their stakeholders or owners reside. Offshore companies incorporated in Hong Kong are exempted from paying corporate taxes as long as their income source is from outside Hong Kong. Companies in Hong Kong can also be registered with a low paid-up capital of US$1. It is one of the benefits that attract most people to incorporate an offshore company in Hong Kong.

A Hong Kong offshore company is often used by investors to legally minimize international taxation since they do not pay corporate income tax, especially on the foreign-sourced income. The other benefit of incorporating an offshore company in Hong Kong include exclusion from capital gains tax and withholding tax on the earnings remitted overseas.

Hong Kong has signed more than thirty-six double tax avoidance treaties that make its offshore companies a great holding vehicle. These make Hong Kong one of the most preferred states to do business.
