Offshore exemption

What is an offshore exemption

To apply for exemption from offshore income tax means that the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department agrees that the profits generated by the company are offshore income. Because Hong Kong is taxed on the principle of geographical origin, that is, only profits originating in Hong Kong are subject to tax in Hong Kong, while profits originating elsewhere are not subject to profits tax in Hong Kong.
Under the Hong Kong Tax Case, the offshore income of The Hong Kong Limited is exempt from profits tax, that is, "business does not operate locally and profits come from overseas", and the Government can apply for exemption from profits tax.
