    Import Vehicle from UK to Hong Kong

    Hi everyone

    I want to buy a old car from Uk to Hong Kong.
    Anyone know is it the car need to have MOT to make the respective document proving permanent export for used vehicles imported from the U.K.?
    That means no MOT no registration document and the car will never license in HK.
    Thanks

    Your biggest worry should be the exhaust and emission, read section 1.6 of the second document to see if it meets the exemption.

    Dont worry about the MOT as what passes in the UK may not necessarily pass in HK

    Thanks all . I practiced this site already but it haven't say the respective document proving permanent export for used vehicles imported from the U.K.
    is it need to do the UK MOT to change this document.

    It's completely easy. The expense is the key.
