Advisory support for accounting treatment and tax positions that fall outside routine, recurring compliance work.
What this covers
- Revenue recognition treatment advisory for new or unusual revenue streams
- Tax position review ahead of a structural change, capital event, or new activity
- Cross-border transaction accounting treatment guidance
- Advisory memo documenting the position taken and its basis, for the entity's own records
- Coordination with statutory compliance work so an advisory position is reflected consistently in the filed accounts
Our services
Judgment calls, not routine filingsAdvisory support on one-off accounting treatment and tax position questions as they arise.
Some accounting and tax questions aren't recurring compliance items — they're one-off judgment calls: how a new revenue stream should be treated, what a structural change means for an existing tax position, how a cross-border arrangement should be booked. Getting the call wrong rarely surfaces immediately; it surfaces at the next audit or the next filing that depends on the earlier one being right.
Grounded in local regulatory knowledgeDrawing on the same working knowledge that underpins our statutory compliance work.
We provide advisory support on these questions as they arise, drawing on the same working knowledge of Hainan's regulatory framework that underpins our statutory compliance work — and we document the position taken and its basis, so the reasoning is on record rather than living only in an email thread.
The reasoning documented, not just the answerA written basis for the position taken, kept on the entity's own record.
This is advisory support, not a substitute for independent tax or legal advice on matters genuinely outside our scope — where a question calls for that, we say so directly rather than offering a view we aren't positioned to stand behind.

Economic substance is no longer a theoretical compliance concept for Hainan-based entities — it is an active area of regulatory review. We outline a practical framework for demonstrating it.

Our practice areas cover the whole life of a foreign-owned presence in Hainan — from the feasibility assessment made before anything is filed, through formation and licensing, payroll, tax and ongoing compliance, to the deregistration that closes an entity properly — alongside the Free Trade Port incentives that are the reason to be here rather than anywhere else in China. One engagement model means a single accountable team across all of them.
