Getting your Amazon store started in Hong Kong
The primary concern for investors who wish to open an Amazon store is to incorporate a company. In Hong Kong, the private limited liability company is the preferred business form because it has no requirements for a minimum share capital, registration with the Companies Registry is a simple one and business owners can start trading in a minimum number of days.
Because Amazon focuses on improving customer experience, affiliated or third-party sellers are also adopting this customer-friendly policy. Amazon stores based in Hong Kong should provide a number of payment options, including payment via PayPal and via credit or debit card. In order to accept such payments from clients, online stores in Hong Kong need to set up a merchant account.
Opening a bank account and a merchant account is one of the initial steps needed to open a Hong Kong company.
