Hong Kong: 180 days in the year of assessment
Up to 180 days between 1 April and 31 March
About This Rule
Counts your days in Hong Kong in each year of assessment, 1 April to 31 March. The Inland Revenue Department treats an individual who stays in Hong Kong for more than 180 days during a year of assessment as a Hong Kong tax resident, for example for a Certificate of Resident Status under a tax treaty. Ordinarily residing in Hong Kong also makes you resident, whatever the days. This tracks the day count only.

Ready-made rules count your days against the limits the law names. They don't decide your visa or residency status, and many laws add conditions a day count can't see.
