Allowable Expenses

I own a property in Hong Kong which has been rented out. I understand the rental income is taxable under my income tax. But I wonder if the following expenses would be deductible? - Government rates paid to Hong Kong Government which is one of Hong Kong's indirect taxes levied on properties - Property tax paid to Hong Kong Government - Stamp duty paid to Hong Kong Government for setting up the lease agreement - Property management fee paid to property management company - Interest paid for the re-mortgage financing plan, other than the existing mortgage plan with a local bank - which this be included as the finance cost and can applied the 20% tax relief

Hi,
Thank you for your question. The Government rates paid to the Hong Kong Government would be allowable against the rental profits.
Please clarify why you were required to pay property tax. Regarding the cost of the lease, please please refer to:
