British Virgin Islands Taxation

 

Under the current laws of the British Virgin Islands, the Group’s subsidiary incorporated in BVI is not subject to income tax.

 

Hong Kong

 

The operating entities of the Group are registered in Hong Kong, where charter hire, whether attributable to a time charterparty or a bareboat charterparty, derived by a Hong Kong resident or non-resident ship operator from the operation of ships (wherever registered) outside the waters of Hong Kong and the river trade waters, or commencing from Hong Kong and proceeding to sea, is not chargeable to profits tax according to local tax regulations. Therefore, the Group’s revenue is either not subject or exempt from income tax according to the tax regulations prevailing in the country in which the Group operates. Hong Kong does not impose withholding tax on dividends and interest currently.

 

The following table reconciles the Hong Kong income tax rates to the Group’s effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:
