1. Identity documents;
2. Provisional sale and purchase agreement; and
3. Relevant income proof documents (details as below)

Job Nature

Generally required documents

Employee

  • 3-6 months deposited salary in bank records
  • Tax bill or tax payment certificate
  • Company contract, letter of appointment
  • Professionals: Practicing Certificate

Self-employed

  • Business license
  • Tax bill or tax payment certificate
  • Income from Overseas or Mainland China: capital verification report in the past year
  • Audit reports and financial statements for 1 to 2 years
  • Bank current account records for the past 6 months

What are the criteria for approving eligible incoming talents?

The approval criteria for eligible incoming talents have been aligned with those of local income earners. The applicant's " debt-to-income ratio" and "stress test" cannot exceed 50% and 60% respectively. If the property is for rental or has other mortgages, the " debt-to-income ratio" and "stress test" cannot exceed 40% and 50% respectively.

What is the tax rate for eligible incoming talents purchasing their first property in Hong Kong?

Holders of Mainland identity or non-Hong Kong passports who buy property for the first time in Hong Kong must pay 7.5% New Residential Stamp Duty (NRSD) and 7.5% Buyer's Stamp Duty (BSD).

Is there any tax exemption for eligible incoming talents?

The "Policy Address 2023" introduces the “suspension arrangement” of stamp duty for incoming talents' acquisition of residential properties.

If a "Sales and Purchase Agreement" is signed on or after 25 October 2023, and eligible incoming talents purchase residential properties in Hong Kong for the first time, they can apply to the Inland Revenue Department for suspension of stamp duty payment in respect of NRSD and BSD. Talents still need to pay the ad valorem stamp duty (“AVD”) at Scale 2 rates. If Talents subsequently fail to become a permanent resident of Hong Kong within 9 years after arriving in Hong Kong, they will have to pay the relevant tax (i.e. the difference between the total tax of NRSD and BSD minus the paid AVD).
