Many mainland foreign trade enterprises hope to conduct international trade by registering a Hong Kong company, but they are not familiar with the basic information related to Hong Kong company registration. For example, is there an address requirement for registering a Hong Kong company?

香港政府要求注册公司需提供地址和法定秘书,用意在于以后能与每一间公司保持联系,地址相对于私人电话更为稳定,信件来往亦符合香港政府的行事习惯,香港政府与公司之间的关于报税、年审等的事宜,都首选邮寄信件的方式进行沟通。

Hongyuan International Consulting introduces that Hong Kong company registration requires a legal registered address, and the specific requirements are as follows:

1. The registered address of a Hong Kong company must be genuine and cannot be a mailbox;

2. One address can be affiliated with N Hong Kong companies without government restrictions;

3. The registered address of a company is mainly used to receive government and bank letters. Any letters from the Hong Kong Registry and the Inland Revenue Department should be sent to the registered address of the company. It is very important whether the registered address can receive them in a timely manner (Hong Kong letters are usually sent by regular mail).

In the early days, many peers used mailboxes as the legal address for customers to register Hong Kong companies. If the profit tax and salary tax forms issued by the tax bureau were lost or could not be delivered to customers in a timely manner, resulting in expired tax forms, the tax bureau would directly issue fines. Customers who failed to declare and submit tax forms in a timely manner multiple times would receive a subpoena from the Hong Kong court.

After March 1, 2018, the market began to become more regulated. Due to the requirement of TCSP license, most peer agents will provide their real registered address. However, many peer agents only rent a small office in Hong Kong to meet the regulatory requirements of TCSP license, and do not work in person or occasionally have people visit, which can also affect the timely sending and receiving of government letters.

Therefore, Hongyuan International Consulting does not recommend using an unstable address without an actual office as the registered address of a Hong Kong company. For specific information, you can consult Hongyuan International Consulting for a stable and reliable registered address.
