Audit & Annual Return
Hong Kong audit, profits tax filing, and annual return handled on a fixed calendar, with deadlines tracked so late penalties do not surprise you. Books in order before the auditor steps in.
What this covers
- Deadline tracking included
- Books cleaned before audit
- Fixed annual engagement
Every Hong Kong company must complete an annual return with the Companies Registry and file audited accounts with the profits tax return — two separate tracks with different deadlines. Missing either triggers penalties and, repeated, can lead to court summons.
Our process
- Build a compliance calendar from your incorporation date and first AR date
- Organize books and vouchers before audit starts to shorten turnaround
- Liaise with the auditor and file the profits tax return with attachments
Common pitfalls
- Assuming a dormant or zero-transaction company needs no audit
- Missing the expanded filing window and losing the time to respond
First-year companies may qualify for simplified arrangements in some cases; we check eligibility rather than promise outcomes.
