💡Weekly E-Newsletter
📑 Hong Kong | Business Registration Fee and Levy Exemption
You may apply for exemption from paying the business registration fee and levy if your business’s average monthly sales do not exceed HK$10,000 (for service-based businesses) or HK$30,000 (for other businesses). For existing businesses, the average is based on the past 6 months, while new businesses use the estimated first 6 months. Exemptions are not available to companies incorporated or registered in Hong Kong under the Companies Ordinance, nor to limited partnership funds. If the same proprietor or partners operate multiple businesses, none of those businesses qualify, though sole proprietorships and partnerships with different ownership are treated separately. Applications must be submitted using “Form 3,” either in person, by post, or online via GovHK (fax submissions are not accepted).
🌏 Singapore | Monetary Policy Intact Amidst Global Economic Resilience
On 30 July 2025, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) kept its exchange rate-based monetary policy unchanged after two earlier easings this year, citing stronger-than-expected global and domestic growth. While global manufacturing and trade have remained steady, MAS expects momentum to moderate amid policy uncertainty and potential tariff changes, though the risk of a sharp downturn has eased with improved financial conditions and reduced trade tensions. Singapore’s GDP grew faster than anticipated in Q2 but is projected to slow in the second half, with significant uncertainty for 2026. Core inflation held at 0.6% in Q2 and is forecast to average 0.5 to 1.5% for 2025, supported by low oil prices and productivity gains. MAS reaffirmed its vigilance in monitoring risks to growth and inflation.
🏦 Taiwan | Payment of Unused Annual Leave by Average Salary
Under Article 38 of Taiwan’s Labor Standards Act, employees are entitled to annual leave based on length of service, ranging from 3 days (after 6 months) up to 30 days (after 10+ years, capped at one additional day per year). Employers must compensate unused leave at the employee’s average wage upon termination, whether resignation is voluntary or not, with payment due at termination or by the next payroll date. For employees still in service, unused leave may be carried over once for up to one year with mutual agreement; if not taken within that period, the employer must pay wages for the remaining days, with no further extensions allowed.
📤 Vietnam | Hanoi Rolls Out Policy to Draw Strategic Investors
On August 20, 2025, the Hanoi People’s Committee issued Official Dispatch No. 4697/UBND-KT to implement Resolution No. 17/2025/NQ-HDND on attracting strategic investors. The directive assigns the Department of Finance to compile a list of eligible projects and develop procedures for investor selection, disclosure, and monitoring. It emphasizes strong incentives for R&D, technology transfer, and high-tech workforce training. The Management Board of high-tech and industrial parks will lead in attracting and selecting investors, while the Tax Department ensures proper implementation of tax incentives and the Customs Branch facilitates streamlined clearance procedures. Relevant departments, branches, and local authorities are tasked with reviewing and proposing priority projects, supporting investment processes, and overseeing post-investment management.
📂 Malaysia | MBRS Enforcement and Reporting Transformation (Issue 2 of 4)
The compulsory enforcement of MBRS enhances transparency and accuracy in financial reporting by standardizing submissions through the XBRL format, reducing errors, and enabling easier comparison across industries. This fosters investor confidence while streamlining regulatory oversight for SSM. However, non-compliance can result in legal penalties, fines, sanctions, and reputational damage, raising concerns among investors and hindering business growth. Stay tuned for our upcoming newsletter, where we share more on MBRS Compulsory Enforcement.
🏆 Dubai | UAE Named the World’s Most Economically Stable Country
The United Arab Emirates has been named the world’s most economically stable country in the latest US News & World Report rankings, topping a list of 89 nations. Credited to its low manufacturing costs, favorable tax policies, minimal bureaucracy, absence of corruption, and government transparency, the UAE outperformed long-standing economic powers like Germany, Canada, and Japan. This recognition, part of the US News Best Countries report developed with the Wharton School and WPP, underscores the UAE’s reputation as a safe, transparent, and business-friendly hub, further strengthening its appeal to global investors, entrepreneurs, and talent.
