HK dollar power triggers the city to the world's top 5 with highest expat pay and benefits packages

Updated: Jul 27, 2023


Hong Kong is now back in the world’s top five countries where expatriate gets the highest pay and benefits packages. The survey conducted by human resources consultancy showed that expatriate payment dropped 2 per cent from 2021’s figures.


This year, the city has risen to three places to be in 5th rank in correspondence to the survey results by ECA International on Wednesday.


It was deduced that the power of the Hong Kong dollar countered the reverse in salary and benefits packages for expatriates.


The estimation of the average payment of the expatriate in the city is over  HK$2.18 million (US$279,065) per annum in 2022, while salaries dropped by US$2,400 and benefits by US$1,600.


Britain is at the top of the global list with expatriates earning US$440,000 annually. It is followed by Japan, India and mainland China.


Singapore’s pay packages increased, placing the city-state 16th. Expatriate salaries also decreased in Japan, South Korea, the mainland and Taiwan last year.


In Japan, average pay and benefits packages for expats were the highest in Asia at US$370,183 per annum, with a 5 per cent increase in local currency terms.



港元推動香港躋身全球外籍人士薪酬和福利待遇最高的城市前五名


香港現已重新躋身全球外籍人士薪資和福利待遇最高的前五名國家之列。 人力資源諮詢公司進行的調查顯示,外派人員的薪酬較 2021 年下降了 2%。

根據 ECA International 週三的調查結果,今年該市排名上升三位,位列第五。

據推斷,港元的強勢抵消了外籍人士工資和福利待遇的逆轉。

預計到 2022 年,該市外籍人士的平均年薪將超過 218 萬港元(279,065 美元),而工資將減少 2,400 美元,福利將減少 1,600 美元。

英國位居全球榜首,外籍人士年收入達 44 萬美元。 其次是日本、印度和中國大陸。

新加坡的薪酬水平有所提高,排名第 16 位。 去年,日本、韓國、大陸和台灣的外籍人士工資也有所下降。

在日本,外籍人士的平均工資和福利待遇為亞洲最高,為每年 370,183 美元,以當地貨幣計算增長了 5%。
