Get Started with HK is a Hong Kong-based company registration service offering fast setup—often within 12 to 48 hours—for foreigners seeking 100% ownership, territorial tax advantages, and a crypto-friendly business environment. Their service includes multiple packages tailored for startups, e-commerce businesses, and crypto ventures, complete with registered address, secretary services, and bank support.
What They Do Well:
✔️ Lightning-fast registration (as quick as 12 hours)
✔️ Crypto-friendly – offers referrals to platforms like Airwallex and neobanks
✔️ Transparent pricing with tiered packages ($720 to $990+)
✔️ All legal documents, stamp/chop, and optional accounting team introductions included
✔️ No negative reviews publicly found — strong early reputation
Potential Drawbacks:
⚠️ Not a full accounting or legal firm – ideal for setup, but you may need third-party help long-term
⚠️ No in-house crypto legal compliance advisory (e.g. licensing or token issuance support)
⚠️ Still subject to changing Hong Kong regulatory pressure, especially around crypto
Major Advantages:
✔️ Territorial Tax System – Only income sourced within Hong Kong is taxed
✔️ No Capital Gains Tax – Retain full gains from crypto or asset trading
✔️ 100% Foreign Ownership – No local shareholder required
✔️ Professional Image – Strong reputation in Asia for trust and corporate legitimacy
✔️ Fast Setup – Companies often formed in under 2 business days
Real Considerations:
❌ Banking Access – Traditional HK banks are strict; most clients use neobanks
❌ Geopolitical Uncertainty – Long-term autonomy of Hong Kong is debated
❌ Ongoing Fees – Registered address, secretary, and renewal costs are yearly
❌ Compliance – Territorial tax system can be complex if revenue mixes jurisdictions
Best For:
Crypto entrepreneurs, digital businesses, consultants, and global freelancers who want a legal entity in a tax-friendly, internationally respected jurisdiction—without slow bureaucracy or local ownership requirements.
