Tax overview

Customs duty
Hong Kong is a free port and does not levy customs tariffs on imports or exports. Excise duties apply to liquor, tobacco, hydrocarbon oil and methyl alcohol.
Import VAT / GST / other taxes
Hong Kong does not levy VAT or general services taxes on imports.
Exemptions & low-value shipments
The absence of general tariffs does not remove customs controls, licensing requirements or excise duties on dutiable commodities. Check the treatment of your specific goods.

Documents to prepare

  • Commercial invoice with goods description and value
  • Packing list with quantities and weights
  • Bill of lading or air waybill
  • HS classification and country-of-origin evidence
  • Importer details and any product-specific permits

This is a preparation checklist, not a verified country-specific list. Additional documents may be required.

General information only, not tax or legal advice. Duties and taxes depend on classification, origin, valuation, applicable relief and the rules in force on import. Customs authorities determine the final assessment.
