Taxation Faculty
The Taxation Faculty ("TF") was the second specialist faculty established by the Institute and was set up in 2012.
The TF brings together under one umbrella the different tax activities and programmes run by the Institute, primarily the technical, advocacy and liaison work as well as member services, such as the tax seminars, networking events and e-newsletter. This facilitates a more focused approach, with improved coordination, and increased opportunities for members to participate in the various TF activities and projects. The operation of TF is overseen by an executive committee.
The TF helps raise the profile of the taxation profession in Hong Kong and provides a stronger voice for members working in this field. It also offers a stronger platform for the further development of high-quality tax services under the Institute. The TF lends support to other Institute initiatives, such as the advanced diploma in specialist taxation.
Membership
Membership of the TF is open to Institute members and staff of CPA firms. Eligibility for membership is also extended to holders of other relevant professional memberships and qualifications, experienced tax practitioners and other interested persons.
