广州做外贸的老李，2023年在香港注册了一家公司，用来收海外客户的美元货款。注册后第一年按时做了年审，但2024年、2025年连续两年忘了——他以为”公司没经营，不用管”。

Nine out of ten sellers who run their own online stores have had this kind of wishful thinking:

“Register a company in Hong Kong; funds are transferred via PayPal and AirPay, bypassing mainland China accounts, so no taxes are owed.”

“Our Hong Kong company has always filed zero-revenue returns; no one audits us, so we save wherever we can.”

“The offshore exemption process is too complicated; it’s not worth the hassle.”

Many small and medium-sized independent online store sellers operate using this “extensive approach,” unaware that tax risks have long been quietly accumulating.

In this issue, we share a real-life, anonymized client case study: A seller’s Hong Kong company had been filing zero tax returns for an extended period, had genuine transaction records in its overseas accounts, and operated a mainland China company in parallel. Starting from a high-risk, non-compliant status, the client successfully eliminated risks at low cost and legally saved a significant amount in taxes through a combination of the Hong Kong offshore exemption and a phased compliance approach in mainland China.

If you also own a Hong Kong company, operate an independent e-commerce site or engage in cross-border e-commerce, have consistently filed zero tax returns but have actual business transactions, and are unsure about your risks and compliance options, you can receive a free consultation and assessment.

2026优才改12项准则，这4类人最好拿 广州林哥去年底递了香港优才申请，用的是老版打分制——自己算了128分，觉得应该稳了。结果等了两个月，收到一封补件通知，告诉他：打分制已经废了，请按12项新准则重新提交。 林哥不是个例。

零申报=不审计？香港审计三大致命误区 杭州赵总2024年注册了一家香港公司做跨境收款，一直以为”公司没在香港做生意、利润也在境外”，不用审计报税。直到上个月收到税务局罚款通知书：逾期未交审计报告，罚款1200港币起步，还要补以前年度的审计。
