For the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone, the Permitted Industry Catalogue was issued in March 2013. This sets out six permitted industries which include financial services, modern logistics, information services, technology services, professional services and public services. The permitted financial services also include banking institutions, non-banking financial institutions, securities, insurance, financial leasing and offshore financial services.
Other tax measures provide for relief for some industrial sectors from business tax. This includes income derived by enterprises registered in the zone from offshore outsourcing services. Also, enterprises engaged in projects requiring government support may apply for special funds from Qianhai Administration Bureau. This fund gives priority to projects involving core technology or innovative business models.
