A company secretary is a legal necessity for business registration in Hong Kong. This role is crucial for ensuring regulatory compliance and focuses on administration and governance rather than clerical tasks.
The responsibilities of a company secretary include ensuring the timely submission of annual returns, maintaining compliance with local laws, particularly the Companies Ordinance, managing company records, and facilitating communication with authorities such as the Inland Revenue Department and Companies Registry.
Partnering with an agency like InCorp Hong Kong offers comprehensive support in company incorporation and secretarial services. They bring extensive experience in the Hong Kong market and offer cost-effective solutions.
