CoinVoice has recently learned that the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department has clarified that the buying, selling, or transferring of tokenized ETF shares or units on licensed digital asset trading platforms or other platforms in Hong Kong will be exempt from stamp duty. In addition, Hong Kong is promoting the implementation of a licensing mechanism for digital asset trading service providers and digital asset custody service providers, hoping to advance the relevant legal provisions for legislative review by the Legislative Council after the elections in December this year. Furthermore, according to Hong Kong's Financial Secretary Paul Chan, the first implementation will be the Hong Kong dollar stablecoin, with the first batch of licenses expected to be issued according to the original schedule in early 2026.[Original link]
