Hong Kong Tax Advisors

Timothy Loh LLP is one of a few Hong Kong law firms with a strong track record advising on Hong Kong tax laws. Our tax lawyers focus on tax planning and tax litigation. We have advised Fortune Global 500 companies and other multinationals, listed companies, hedge fund managers, private equity fund sponsors, family offices and high net worth individuals, financial technology providers and state owned enterprises across a wide range of Hong Kong income tax matters, including profits tax and salaries tax, and stamp duty.

In tax planning, we assist clients to minimize future tax liabilities, taking into account anti-avoidance provisions under the Inland Revenue Ordinance ("IRO") and the common law and base erosion and profit shifting ("BEPS") principles. We have particular in-depth experience with Hong Kong corporate tax issues connected to our practices in Hedge Funds and Private Equity, for which we have been internationally recognized as leading practices by the International Financial Law Review 1000 (IFLR1000), the Legal 500, Chambers and Partners and asialaw.

In tax litigation, we represent clients in Inland Revenue Department (“IRD”) audits, investigations and other tax controversies.

As a tax law firm, our tax advice is protected from disclosure by legal professional privilege, meaning that, unlike in the case of tax accountants, our clients can be assured that neither the IRD nor any other authority can compel the disclosure of their communications with us and our advice to them.
