The 42-Day Golden Window: Understanding the Risks of Late Annual Return (Form NAR1) Filings in Hong Kong

FAQs

Frequently  Asked Questions

Can a foreigner be the sole director and shareholder?

Yes, non-residents can 100% own and direct a Hong Kong company.

Do I need a local Company Secretary?

Yes, a Hong Kong resident or a licensed local company is mandatory for every firm.

What is the minimum share capital?

Hong Kong company law does not stipulate a minimum registered capital requirement for a company. Local limited companies must have at least one shareholder holding at least one share.

Is a physical presence required for incorporation?

Generally, no; documents can be signed remotely via courier or electronic systems.

Can my home address be the registered office?

It must be a physical Hong Kong address (not a P.O. Box), but it can be a residential one if it is available for official mail.

What is Annual Return?

An Annual Return (Form NAR1) in Hong Kong is a mandatory, yearly statutory filing for all local private companies with the Companies Registry. It is not a financial statement, but a summary of company details, including directors, shareholders, and registered office address, filed within 42 days of the anniversary of incorporation.

If Late submission of Annual Return, what are the consequences?

Late filing of an annual return for a Hong Kong company results in significantly higher registration fees (ranging from HK$870 to HK$3,480) and potential prosecution for directors, with fines up to HK$50,000 and a daily default fine of HK$1,000. The company may also be struck off the register.
