Hong Kong profits tax at 8.25%/16.5% for corporations or 7.5%/15% for unincorporated businesses, with the connected-entity election. Hong Kong does not simply charge every company 16.5%. An eligible corporation pays 8.25% on the first HK$2 million of assessable profits and 16.5% above; an eligible sole proprietorship or partnership pays 7.5% and 15%. But only one connected entity can elect the two-tiered rates for a year. This calculator makes that hidden eligibility branch explicit and shows the saving against the full rate.
