SUMMARY:e20250910 - Hong Kong Tax Update 2025
DESCRIPTION:\n \nPlease be reminded that this is an e-seminar which can be accessed anytime to obtain the CPD hours.\nAbout the Seminar \nHong Kong Tax Update 2025 \nAs in previous years\, Hong Kong’s domestic tax law has continued to evolve. Notably\, following a period of public consultation\, legislation to implement the global minimum tax and the Hong Kong minimum top-up tax was enacted in June. \nIn addition\, the Government has recently introduced the inward company re-domiciliation regime\, aimed at further enhancing Hong Kong’s appeal as a business hub. Several additional proposals to enhance existing tax regime are also under consideration. \nThe IRD has issued new guidance\, including illustrative examples\, on the patent box regime. The IRD has also continued to provide further guidance on the FSIE regime and has addressed the profits tax implications for employers arising from the abolition of the MPF offsetting mechanism. \nAnother key development is the recent judgment by Hong Kong’s highest court in the John Wiley case. The court held that UK LLPs do not have issued share capital for the purposes of claiming intragroup stamp duty relief in Hong Kong. \nThis seminar is designed to provide you with a comprehensive overview of these important updates and their implications. \nNo CPD hours will be granted if you have already attended the live webinar on 10 September 2025.\n

SUMMARY:e20250716 - What to expect from the Inland Revenue (Amendment) (Minimum Tax for Multinational Enterprise Groups) Ordinance 2025?
DESCRIPTION:\n \nPlease be reminded that this is an e-seminar which can be accessed anytime to obtain the CPD hours.\nAbout the Seminar \nHong Kong has entered a new chapter in international taxation with the enactment of the Inland Revenue (Amendment) (Minimum Tax for Multinational Enterprise Groups) Ordinance 2025 on 6 June 2025. The Ordinance implements both the OECD’s global minimum tax (GloBE Rules) and Hong Kong’s domestic minimum top-up tax (HKMTT)\, fundamentally impacting how multinational enterprises with an annual consolidated revenue of €750M or above in at least two of the four fiscal years preceding the tested fiscal year be taxed in Hong Kong. \nIt is the lnstitute’s great honor to have invited Mr. Benjamin Chan\, JP\, as our guest speaker to share his first-person perspective towards this long-awaited Ordinance. This is an informative and engaging hybrid tax seminar designed to help you navigate the complexities of the regulations. \n  \nNo CPD hours will be granted if you have already attended the live webinar on 16 July 2025.\n

SUMMARY:e20250924 - (Playback) The Taxation of Interest and Royalties – A Practical Guide and Update on Recent Cases
DESCRIPTION:\n \nPlease be reminded that this is an e-seminar which can be accessed anytime to obtain the CPD hours.\n  \nAbout the Seminar \nRecently\, the IRD has challenged the use by many taxpayers of the ‘provision of credit test’ as a basis for offshore claim on interest income. \nOn 24 September\, TIHK has invited Mr. Stefano Mariani the solicitor advocate who is highly experienced in arguing revenue law cases\, including offshore claims\, before the Board of Review and higher Courts\, to speak to us on how to handle IRD’s recent challenges on interest income. \nIn addition\, the speaker will examine the new apportionment ruling on royalty income established in the recent Court of Appeal decision in Patrick Cox Asia and analyse its impact on future tax filings. He will also emphasise the importance of evidence in tax disputes\, especially when the case would likely be appealed to the Board or a higher Court. He will also point out the importance of keeping the relevant documentation and explain what kind of documentation is relevant for a tax dispute following the decisions of the Court of First Instance in Samsung SDI and Sinolink Shanghai. \nMembers who have a tax dispute with IRD or expect to have one in future should attend this seminar. Even without tax dispute the seminar is a good reminder on how to prepare for a defence file pending future IRD’s challenges. \nNo CPD hours will be granted if you have already attended the live webinar on 24 September 2025.\n

DESCRIPTION:\n \nPlease be reminded that this is an e-seminar which can be accessed anytime to obtain the CPD hours.\n  \nAbout the Seminar \nThis seminar will examine and evaluate the competitiveness and business environment of China through the lens of Porter’s Diamond model. Bolstered by factor conditions\, demand conditions\, related and supporting industries\, firm strategy\, structure\, and rivalry—as well as government policies and chance events—Chinese enterprises have increasingly expanded their overseas investments.

Now is the opportune moment to explore international business opportunities. By capitalizing on Hong Kong’s world-class financial markets\, strategic location\, and diverse talent pool\, the region can effectively bridge East and West\, unlocking new markets\, fostering innovation\, and promoting sustainable growth. \nOutline: \n\nGlobal Economic Outlook for 2026\nImpact on Outbound Investments\nAnalysis of Competitiveness and Business Environment Using Porter’s Diamond\nModel\nHong Kong’s Role as a Strategic Platform for Outbound Investments\n\nNo CPD hours will be granted if you have already attended the live webinar on 13 January 2026.\n
