Why Should Singapore Companies Register a Company in Hong Kong?
Strategic Location
Hong Kong serves as a gateway to Mainland China and Asia, providing easy market access and a strong trade network.
Business-Friendly Environment
With low corporate taxes, no VAT/GST, and a free-market economy, Hong Kong offers a highly attractive business climate
Legal System
Hong Kong’s transparent, English-based common law system ensures legal certainty and strong intellectual property protection.
Access to Funding and Capital Markets
As a global financial hub, Hong Kong provides businesses with extensive funding opportunities through banks, investors, and the stock market.
Most Common Singapore Company Types Who Incorporate in Hong Kong
1. Financial Services and Fintech Companies
Hong Kong’s status as a global financial hub offers unmatched access to financing, advanced banking services, and a gateway to mainland China’s financial markets. The city’s robust regulatory environment is also conducive to fintech innovation, making it attractive for fintech startups and established financial institutions alike.
2. Trading Companies
Leveraging Hong Kong’s strategic location, trading companies can easily access both the Asian and global markets. The region’s free port status and efficient customs procedures simplify international trade operations.
3. Technology and Startups
The vibrant ecosystem for startups in Hong Kong, supported by government incentives, access to venture capital, and proximity to manufacturing zones in mainland China, makes it a favorable environment for tech companies and startups.
4. Consulting Firms
With a large number of multinational corporations based in Hong Kong, there is a high demand for professional consulting services in areas like business strategy, management, and financial advisory, providing a lucrative market for Singapore-based consulting firms.
5. Real Estate and Investment Firms
Real estate in Hong Kong has been a high-value market for decades, attracting investors looking for capital gains and rental yields. The transparent property ownership laws and mature real estate market are key attractions.
6. Manufacturing Companies
Although Hong Kong itself is not a manufacturing hub, its proximity to the Pearl River Delta, one of the world’s largest manufacturing regions, allows companies to manage operations and logistics efficiently. Companies often set up headquarters in Hong Kong to oversee their manufacturing processes in nearby Chinese cities.
