Turning Compliance into Business Insight
Understanding the timeline for tax compliance is crucial for avoiding penalties.
Profit Tax Return (PTR) Timeline
The Inland Revenue Department (IRD) generally issues the first PTR within one to two months before the second anniversary of your company's incorporation date.
Understanding Your Financial Year
A Hong Kong company's financial year begins on the first day of its chosen Accounting Reference Period (ARP) and concludes on the last day of that period.
Choosing Your Accounting Reference Period (ARP)
You must select an ARP that aligns with your operational cycle. Here are common examples of how the deadlines relate:
| Financial Year End Date | Tax Filing Deadline (PTR Issued By) | Documents Ready for Audit |
|---|---|---|
| March 31st | Mid-November | By September 1st |
| December 31st | Mid-August | By June 1st |
| June 30th | End of April | By mid-February |
In strict adherence to the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, every incorporated company must:
- Maintain Proper Books of Accounts: Keep accurate and complete financial records throughout the year.
- Prepare Audited Financial Statements: Annual reports must include audited financial statements, a balance sheet, a cash flow statement, and a profit and loss account.
- CPA Sign-Off: These financial statements must be signed off by a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) registered in Hong Kong.
