Importers must obtain an Import License to legally bring Right-Hand Drive (RHD) vehicles into the country.

Unlike neighboring countries, you can import vehicles of any year, though older cars attract higher excise taxes.

We recommend “Cold Area Spec” vehicles for Mongolia to ensure battery and fluid longevity during sub-zero temperatures.

Nexuss Pro-Tips for 2026

  1. Tianjin Transit: Ensure your shipping agent has a strong relationship with Chinese rail authorities. Transit from Tianjin Port to Ulaanbaatar can take 10–20 days.
  2. Hybrid Advantages: Hybrid vehicles (especially the Prius) often qualify for lower environmental levies—check the latest 2026 “Green” tax incentives.
  3. Documentation: Keep your Original Export Certificate safe; Mongolian customs requires the physical original, not a copy, for final registration.
