Yes. As of 2026, all petrol private cars must comply with Euro 6c (or equivalent Japan/US standards) for both exhaust and noise emissions. Before shipping, you must obtain an Approval Letter from the Environmental Protection Department (EPD). We specialize in sourcing 2021–2026 models from Japan that already meet these stringent requirements, ensuring a smooth approval process.

Hong Kong is a free port with 0% Customs Duty, but the First Registration Tax (FRT) is significant. It is a tiered tax based on the vehicle’s CIF value (Cost, Insurance, and Freight):

  • First HK$150,000: 46%
  • Next HK$150,000: 86%
  • Next HK$200,000: 115%

Balance: 132% Our built-in calculator above will give you a precise estimate based on these current 2026 rates.

If you are importing an Electric Vehicle (EV) and scrap an eligible old private car in Hong Kong, you can enjoy a higher FRT concession of up to HK$172,500 (valid until March 31, 2026). For EVs that do not qualify for the “One-for-One” scheme, the standard tax concession is capped at HK$58,500. Note that EVs with a taxable value exceeding HK$500,000 are not eligible for these concessions.

YUnder normal circumstances, No. Hong Kong strictly prohibits the registration of Left-Hand Drive vehicles (except for very rare diplomatic or cross-border exceptions). Additionally, there is a virtual ban on importing used diesel private cars due to the extremely strict emission standards that older diesel engines cannot meet. We recommend focusing on Petrol Hybrids (e-Power) or Full Electric models.

Once the car arrives, it must be moved to a Transport Department (TD) Vehicle Examination Centre. You will need to present your EPD Approval Letter. After the vehicle passes the safety and roadworthiness inspection, you pay the FRT to the Customs and Excise Department and can then proceed to the Transport Department to receive your Hong Kong license plates.

EPD Emissions Approval

  • The Approval: Before your car even leaves Japan, we help you submit the “Application for Vehicle Exhaust and Noise Emissions Compliance” to the Environmental Protection Department (EPD).
  • Testing: We ensure your 2021–2026 model has the necessary Certificate of Conformity (CoC) or recognized test reports to pass without delay.

TD Registration & Licensing

  • Examination: Upon arrival, your vehicle must pass a physical examination at a Transport Department (TD) Vehicle Examination Centre to confirm roadworthiness.
  • Licensing: After paying the FRT, you receive your HK plates. We can assist in coordinating with local agents for “One-for-One” quota applications if you are importing an EV.
