What are the consequences if a Hong Kong company does not file its annual return?
Account Frozen
Hong Kong bank accounts will be frozen, making it impossible to deposit or withdraw funds or withdraw the balance, and you will no longer be able to open an account in the future.
Government fine
If you fail to file the annual return, the government may impose a fine or prosecute, and the court may issue a summons.
Damaged credit
It may result in shareholders and directors having a poor credit record, affecting immigration clearance and flight connections, among other things.

Report promptly
Whether there is a dedicated person to remind you and handle the annual review and annual return on time, so as to avoid any penalty records.
