You should copy this to your bank or go to the UK Consulate and sort it. Your employer would have to complete a form when they employed you to the Inland Revenue Dept here notifying them so you should ask for a copy of that.
The UK and HKG have a taxation agreement whereby if you pay tax in HK on what you earn here you do not have to pay UK tax but if you spend more than 3 months in UK a year it gets complicated . |
hmmm, i am pretty sure there is NO double tax treaty between the UK and HK, therefore any income (including interest income on bank accounts) has to be declared in both countries.
