However, the victim said that when he was studying in the United States, he had to pay a fine for speeding. Afterwards, he went to court and “argued hard” to admit his fault. In the end, he got a reduction in the fine, so he decided to do the same in Hong Kong this time.

The Inland Revenue Department uses a “hot trick” to apply for a ban on taxpayers who owe taxes from leaving Hong Kong.

In May, working people will receive the “green bomb” tax return for 2023/24. Generally, they need to fill it out within one month from the date of issuance, or submit it electronically. As for tax payment, it is divided into two installments, January and April. The tax bureau pointed out that if taxpayers owe taxes, a 5% surcharge will generally be levied first; if the arrears exceed 6 months, the arrears will be levied again. 10% surcharge and another surcharge notice will be issued. The authorities also remind workers that they will adopt various “dirty tricks” to recover taxes, including issuing tax recovery notices to third parties such as employers and banks of tax defaulters. They can also apply for a writ of summons in the District Court to demand tax debts. When a taxpayer initiates a civil lawsuit and recovers taxes, the taxpayer must pay court costs and interest on the judgment debt for the judgment debt. In addition, the Commissioner of Inland Revenue can apply to the District Court for a departure prevention order to prevent the taxpayer from leaving Hong Kong.
