Chinese individual investors investing in Hong Kong-listed shares through the Southbound Stock Connect are currently required to pay a 20% income tax to the Mainland government when they receive dividends.

Citing sources, Bloomberg reported that the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) and the State Administration of Taxation (SAT) are considering exempting the relevant dividends from the tax, and that a draft plan has been reported to the regulators. However, whether it will be implemented and the date of implementation are still subject to uncertainty.
