The Mandatory Provident Fund (“MPF”) system was launched by the government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (“HKSAR”) in December 2000. Regulated and monitored by the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority (“MPFA”), the system aims to provide retirement support for the Hong Kong workforce.
According to the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance, your employer is responsible to enrol you in an MPF scheme. Both you and your employer are required to make contributions based on your monthly relevant income*.
| Relevant income* | Employer’s Mandatory Contribution | Employer’s Mandatory Contribution |
|---|---|---|
| Less than HK$7,100 a month | 5% | 5% |
| Less than HK$7,100 a month | 5% | 5% |
| Less than HK$7,100 a month | 5% | 5% |
* Relevant income refers to any wages, salary, leave pay, fee, commission, bonus, gratuity, perquisite or allowance (including housing allowance or other housing benefits), expressed in monetary terms, paid or payable by an employer (directly or indirectly) to their employees. It does not include any severance payments and long service payments under the Employment Ordinance.
| Relevant income* | Employer’s Mandatory Contribution | Employer’s Mandatory Contribution |
