Qualifying Deferred Annuity Policy (QDAP) satisfies the Insurance Authority (IA)’s criteria on deferred annuity products. The policyholder of QDAP can enjoy tax deductions on the premium up to a limit of HK$60,000 deductible per year. Both the product break-even year and the rate of return can be enhanced if tax savings are considered, particularly for policyholders with high marginal tax rates. 10Life rates the products based on mainly the returns, assuming the policyholder starts paying premium at age 35 or age 45.

QDAP (Savings) Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Insurance Authority (IA)’s criteria on QDAP?
- Minimum total premiums of HK$180,000 and minimum premium payment period of 5 years
- Minimum annuity period of 10 years
- Annuity income to start at the age of 50 or above
- Disclosure of Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of the product to allow evaluation and comparison
- Clear presentation of the guaranteed and non-guaranteed annuity payouts
- Clear separation of premiums of all riders (e.g. critical illness, hospitalisation cash, etc.) from the QDAP premiums
You may find the full details from <GL19: Guideline on Qualifying Deferred Annuity Policy> issued by IA.
How much is the tax saving?
Premium paid for QDAP is tax deductible up to a limit of HK$60,000 per year. The actual tax amount saved would depend on your marginal tax rate. For example, based on the prevailing highest tax rate of 17%, you may save up to $10,200 payable tax per year from buying QDAP.
What should I consider when choosing a deferred annuity?
An annuity product aims to protect the retirement life of the insured in the financial aspect. As you age your risk tolerance generally decreases, hence you shall focus on the guaranteed return and the longevity coverage of the annuity product. Some annuity products present attractive projected returns, but the non-guaranteed part is dependent on multiple factors including the market environment, investment performance, dividend policy, etc. and your retirement plans could be seriously affected if the non-guaranteed income is not as expected.
Would the Inland Revenue Department (IRD) recover my tax deductions if I surrender my QDAP early?
Under current arrangements, early surrender of policy would not make the tax deductions recoverable by the IRD. However, if you cancel the policy during the cooling-off period and have your paid premium refunded, you would need to pay back any tax deductions made.
