WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU
Our focus on providing specialist tax advice rather than legal or accounting services sets us apart from traditional solicitors firms and CPA firms in Hong Kong. We offer practical and audit conflict-free objective advice on complex domestic and international tax matters.
Whilst we always aim at doing our utmost for you, in practice, we can assist you with a broad range of tax matters relating to amongst others:
(Re)structuring of your new, existing or expanding business or investments domestically or internationally
Transactions, including M&A, (re)financing, pre-IPO (re)structuring, real estate transfers, exit strategies
Tax health checks, particularly with respect to cross-border group tax risks and tax-saving opportunities
Creation, development, acquisition and (sub-)licensing of intellectual property
Trust arrangements and wills for estate planning, asset protection or pre-emigration purposes, etc.
Investment fund formation, downstream investments and carried interest arrangements
Share-based employment benefit schemes (including ESOPs, RSUs, exit packages, amongst others)
Non-profit organisations and tax-exempt entities (including applications for tax exempt status of charities)
Exchange of financial information between tax authorities (automatically, spontaneously or upon request)
Application for tax residency certificates, advance tax rulings and advance pricing agreements
Enquiries from tax authorities (including offshore claims), tax audits, field investigations and asset freezing
Overseas withholding tax refund claims for institutional and private investors
Where other matters are relevant for you, we are generally able to assist or connect you with appropriate business partners. Over the years, we have grown a considerable network in many countries, and we are always keen to share both our contacts and experience with you.
