If
you plan to engage in profit making activities, you have a choice between a
subsidiary company or a branch office. From a taxation perspective, there is
very little difference between them as both of them are subject to same tax
regime and tax rates. In case of branch office, there may be sometimes
practical difficulties in terms of determining assessable profits and your opinion
may differ from that of tax authorities. Moreover, liabilities of a branch
office extend to its parent company whereas in case of the subsidiary, the
liabilities are limited to the subsidiary company itself. Consequently, most
foreign companies prefer to establish a subsidiary company in Hong Kong and not
a branch office.
If
however, you wish to test the Hong Kong business climate before making large
scale investments you can opt for setting up a representative office. Take note
that you can run only as a cost center and not a profit-making entity.
