💲Hong Kong | Understanding Tax Treatment for Losses in Hong Kong
In Hong Kong, losses from a trade, profession, or business can be set off against future assessable profits without a fixed time limit, though they cannot be carried back to prior years. If a corporation has multiple businesses, losses from one can offset profits from others, with any remaining balance carried forward. However, there is no provision for group relief of losses, meaning losses cannot be transferred between entities within the same corporate group. An anti-avoidance provision restricts the use of carried-forward losses if there is a change in shareholding aimed at utilizing those losses against subsequent profits.
💼 Singapore | The New Bizfile Portal is Here
ACRA’s new Bizfile portal, launched on 9 December 2024, offers a seamless experience for business registration, updates, annual filings, and data retrieval. Key features include a user-centric design, integrated access to registry services and APIs, enhanced data integrity and governance, improved personal data protection with a new contact address requirement, and easier access to business data to support growth.
🏢 Taiwan | Three Essential Considerations for Disposing of Fixed Assets
When a business disposes of fully depreciated fixed assets, if the proceeds from the sale of scrap materials are less than the residual value, the shortfall is recorded as a loss; if the proceeds exceed the residual value, the excess is recognized as income. According to the Income Tax Act, these gains or losses should be recorded in the current year. While there is no need to report to the tax bureau, supporting documentation is required to recognize any loss.
🏭 Vietnam | Four Reasons the North Attracts High-Value Industries
The North of Vietnam is leading in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) in high-value industries like automobiles, electronics, and solar energy due to its favorable geographical location, developed infrastructure, abundant industrial land, and reasonable rental prices. It attracts 7 out of 10 leading semiconductor corporations, with Bac Ninh hosting major players like Samsung Electronics and Amkor Technology. The Northern Key Economic Zone, including Bac Ninh and Hai Phong, benefits from its proximity to China and the North Asian market, offering abundant land and lower rental costs—28% less than the South. In the first half of 2024, the Northern Economic Zone will add 12,985 hectares of industrial land across 73 industrial parks. Despite a high occupancy rate of 78% and an average land price of USD 132/m², the region faces challenges in labor skills, necessitating education and training reforms to enhance workforce capabilities.
🏡 Malaysia | Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) Program [Issue 1 of 4]
In June 2024, Malaysia revised its Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) program, introducing three categories: Platinum, Gold, and Silver, and a special category for SEZ and SFZ. The Platinum category requires applicants to be 25 years or older, deposit USD 1 million (with up to 50% withdrawal allowed for specific purposes), and pay a one-off participation fee of RM200,000. Participants must purchase a house worth at least RM2 million, reside in Malaysia for at least 90 days annually, and the MM2H pass is valid for 20 years with a 5-year renewal. Dependents and foreign domestic helpers are allowed, and participants can engage in business, investments, and employment, as well as undergo long-term medical treatment in Malaysia. Stay tuned for more details in the upcoming newsletter.
👫 Dubai | UAE Launches Five-Year Renewable Visa for Retirees Aged 55 and Above
