Taxation Requirement and Deduction NotesBrief on Tax Deduction_Eng
 

Hong Kong is a free port that thrives on free trade. No tariff nor customs duty is imposed upon the import and export of recyclables. In general, the local recycling business is chargeable to profits tax based on the profits it makes. In order to encourage the business community to acquire and use environment-friendly facilities, the government has revised the Inland Revenue Ordinance in 2008 to introduce accelerated tax deduction associated with profits tax. Recycling business operators may apply for the aforementioned deductions under profits tax according to the capital expenditure incurred on the eligible machinery and installations.
