by Mona Ho Comment Closed
自2021年1月19日國家稅務局發佈了《港澳涉稅專業人士在中國（廣東）自由貿易試驗區深圳前海蛇口片區執業管理暫行辦法》（以下簡稱《辦法》），全面放寬港澳涉稅專業人士執業要求，包括取消資格考試，並改為執業登記；拓寬服務區域，放寬服務範圍，取消執業年齡、合夥人資質、內地執業時間限制等，大大為香港稅務師和澳門會計師跨境執業提供了便利。 在向深圳市稅務局遞交《港澳涉稅專業服務人員執業登記表》前，香港稅務師必先要取得本學會出具的推薦函，以茲證明申請人連續3年從事涉稅專業的實際工作經驗而且最近3年未因執業行為不當受到所在地區主管部門行政處罰或行業懲戒。香港稅務學會（The Taxation Institute of Hong Kong）是獲授權在香港辦理和出具推薦函的唯一機構。 截至12月16日，學會已出具超過50份推薦函，而當中已46名香港稅務師成功獲得跨境執業資格。在取得跨境執業資格後，更有稅務師成功在深圳發起設立稅務師事務所，當中5間已完成了行政登記，可於前海正式執業，開展稅務服務。其中1間更是由港深澳三地稅務師共同設立的稅務師事務所。 有關申請香港稅務學會推薦函以便進行跨境執業登記的詳情，請瀏覽學會網站。 申請資格及條件: https://www.tihk.org.hk/cross-border-practising.../ 下載申請表格: https://www.tihk.org.hk/cross-border-practising-guidance.../ 如有任何查詢，歡迎聯絡香港稅務學會秘書處︰ 電話 2810 0438 電郵 tihkadm@tihk.org.hk ...
