Turn your tech dream into a success story

To incorporate a tech company in Hong Kong, start by choosing a company name, registering a local address, and preparing the share capital and officer structure. Next, BBCIncorp will assist you in preparing the necessary company documents, including the memorandum and articles of association. Once ready, we submit the application to the Companies Registry (CR) for approval. After incorporation, we help obtain required licenses and certificates.

Once your business is registered, we then guide you through opening a business bank account. Finally, we offer ongoing compliance services to ensure your company meets legal and regulatory requirements as it grows.

Technology companies in Hong Kong must meet standard compliance requirements, with additional considerations for IP and data-related obligations:

• Annual return filing: Submit an annual return to the Companies Registry to update company details.
• Tax filings: File profits tax returns and claim R&D tax deductions, if applicable.
• Audited financial statements: Prepare audited financial accounts, especially crucial for companies managing intellectual property or licensing agreements.
• Annual General Meeting (AGM): Hold an AGM unless exempt, to align stakeholders.
• Data Privacy Compliance: Ensure adherence to Hong Kong’s Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (PDPO) if handling user or customer data.

But don't worry, BBCIncorp offers full compliance services to keep your tech company aligned with regulatory requirements. Reach out to us via service@bbcincorp.com.

No, you do not need to be a Hong Kong resident to start a tech company. Hong Kong allows foreign entrepreneurs to incorporate businesses without residency requirements. However, you will need to appoint a local company secretary, which BBCIncorp can provide.

Additionally, having a local address for your company registration is required, and virtual offices are legally accepted. BBCIncorp also offers both physical and virtual office services, whichever you need.

The costs of incorporating your business will depend on the service package you choose. At BBCIncorp, we offer three main packages with clear, transparent pricing and no hidden fees:

• Basic Package: Includes incorporation, corporate secretary service, and all mandatory legal requirements for one year.
• Essential Package: Everything in the Basic Package, plus assistance with setting up a business banking account.
• Premium Package: Everything in the Basic Package, along with unlimited banking support of up to 5 business accounts.
