Accounting
and audit

Accounting and audit

We ensure 100% compliance with the legislation of Hong Kong in the field of accounting and reporting. You focus on growing your business and conquering new markets.

Preparation of annual financial statements and its subsequent audit is a mandatory requirement for companies in Hong Kong. This factor significantly increases the reputation of Hong Kong in the eyes of banks, investors, partners and international organizations. Accounting is carried out in accordance with the concept of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), called the Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards Framework (HKFRS).

A company registered in Hong Kong is required to prepare and conduct an audit of its financial statements on an annual basis. The financial report of the company in Hong Kong is a report which helps to evaluate the financial position of the company and its profit (loss) for the financial year. It consists of 3 sections:

Balance Sheet, which shows the company’s assets, liabilities, and capital for the reporting period.
Income statement, which shows the company’s profits, expenses, losses and earnings. Shows the company’s net profit after expenses for the reporting period.
Cash flow statement, which shows cash flow and how it is used.

Once a company’s financial report in Hong Kong is prepared, a certified public accountant conducts an audit of the financial statements, the purpose of which is to confirm the accuracy of the financial statements. After that, the audited financial statements are submitted to the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong as a compulsory supplement to the Income Tax Declaration. If the source of profit of the company was outside Hong Kong, a special application for income tax exemption in Hong Kong is also attached.

Apostille service

We will accompany the legalization (apostille) of any corporate or civil document in Hong Kong in the shortest time period.

Apostille is a method of official confirmation of documents for recognition of their legal force in another country that is a party to the Hague Convention on Apostille of October 5, 1961. The Supreme Court of Hong Kong is the body that affixes an apostille on documents. Consular legalization, in turn, is applied to countries that are not parties to the Hague Convention and is carried out at the consulate of the relevant country located in Hong Kong.

Documents subject to an apostille in Hong Kong can be divided into the following categories:

1) Original documents that are issued by government authorities and certified by the original stamp of the relevant authority that issued the document:

Original company documents such as Certificate of Incorporation, Articles of Incorporation, NNC1 Registration Form, NAR1 Data Update Form, Company Particulars Form, Certificate of Continuing Registration, and other company issued by the Hong Kong Companies Registry.
Original Certificate of Business Registration stamped by the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department.
Marriage certificate signed by an authorized person of the Civil Registry Office.
Certificate of Absence of Marriage Record, signed by an authorized person of the Civil Registry Office.
Birth and death certificates signed by an authorized person of the Civil Registry Office.

2) Documents certified by a Hong Kong public notary or commissioner under oath in Hong Kong. For example:

Original or copy of power of attorney.
Copies of passports.
Copies of driver’s licenses.
Copies of diplomas.
Copies of civil documents (certificates of birth, death, marriage, no criminal record).
Copies of company documents.

Consular legalization

We will accompany the consular legalization of any corporate or civil document in Hong Kong in the shortest time period.

Consular legalization of documents is usually carried out by the consulate or embassy of the country for which the documents are legalized located in the country which issued the document. Consulate of each country has its own requirements for legalization of documents, but we can distinguish the general approach:

notarization of documents by a public notary in Hong Kong;
apostille of the documents at the Supreme Court of Hong Kong;

stamping of legalization at the relevant consulate or embassy.

Trademark registration

We increase the capitalization of your business in Hong Kong by protecting intellectual property.

Protecting your company’s brand is an essential part of developing your business. While investing in providing a quality product/service in the marketplace, it is important to protect the part of it that relates to intellectual property. With this approach, your business will be in a strong position against unethical market participants who want to take advantage of the laurels of your intellectual property.

As the owner of a registered trademark, you have the exclusive right to use the trademark for the goods and services for which it is registered. If others use your registered trademark in Hong Kong (or a confusingly similar name) for the same or similar goods or services without your consent, you may bring an infringement action against them. You can use the ® symbol to indicate that your trademark is registered. If your trademark is not registered, you cannot use the ® symbol, but you can use the ™ symbol. Using the ® symbol with an unregistered trademark is a criminal offense.
