A Gift Affidavit is essential in Hong Kong for formally documenting the transfer of property or assets as gifts, providing legal protection for both donors and recipients. This document is particularly important in situations involving significant value transfers, family wealth planning, or where future verification of the gift may be necessary. The affidavit must comply with Hong Kong's Oaths and Declarations Ordinance and other relevant legislation, requiring sworn execution before an authorized official. It typically includes comprehensive details about the gifted property, clear statements of the donor's intention and capacity, and confirmation of the voluntary nature of the transfer. The Gift Affidavit serves multiple purposes, including tax documentation, proof of ownership transfer, and protection against future disputes regarding the gift's validity.
