Hong Kong's Comprehensive Avoidance of Double Taxation Agreement with Türkiye enters into force

******************************************************************************************

     Hong Kong's Comprehensive Avoidance of Double Taxation Agreement (CDTA) with Türkiye signed in September 2024 came into force today (January 30) after both parties completed the relevant ratification procedures. This CDTA will be applicable to Hong Kong tax for the years of assessment beginning on or after April 1, 2027.

     A Government spokesman said, "Under this CDTA, companies and residents of Hong Kong and Türkiye will not have to pay tax twice on a single source of income. It will allow them to have certainty on tax liabilities and save tax when they engage in cross-border business activities, thus helping to promote bilateral trade and investment.

     "Hong Kong has signed CDTAs with 55 tax jurisdictions, with 51 of them already in force, including that with Türkiye."

     The CDTA with Türkiye is now available on the Hong Kong e-Legislation website.
