E-commerce & Trade

Sell globally. Bank in Hong Kong. Pay 0% on offshore profits.

Hong Kong is the world's premier gateway for e-commerce and international trade. Multi-currency banking, no capital controls, and access to Asia's largest markets — all from one company.

Use Cases

Built for every type of online business.

Whether you sell physical products, digital goods, or services — a Hong Kong company gives you the infrastructure to scale globally.

Multi-Currency Banking

Collect in USD, EUR, CNY. Pay in RMB. Settle everywhere.

The biggest challenge for e-commerce founders is payment fragmentation — receiving in multiple currencies, paying suppliers in different ones, losing 2–4% on every conversion. Airwallex solves this with true multi-currency accounts: hold each currency separately and convert only when you need to.

  • Collect Amazon, Shopify, Stripe payouts in original currency
  • Pay Alibaba & Chinese suppliers in RMB/CNH
  • 60+ currencies — convert at interbank rates
  • Visa business card accepted globally

Tax Efficiency

Trade globally. Pay 0% on offshore profits.

Hong Kong's territorial tax system only taxes profits with a genuine source in Hong Kong. If your e-commerce or trading operations generate income from customers and activities outside HK, you can apply for the offshore profits tax exemption — reducing your effective tax rate to 0% on that income.

  • 0% profits tax on offshore income (with exemption)
  • No VAT / GST on most transactions
  • No capital gains tax — sell shares or assets tax-free
  • No withholding tax on dividends
